Why Kubernetes Needs an LTS

I am not understanding how you say you ran a cluster when you were using a managed instance so you weren’t really running it. Now , going to a VPS makes you effectively the MSP. I don’t see how that addresses the LTS issues since k8s is updating so often that you have to keep pace with the updates (that you now need to do).

I use a managed instance and manage my own private instance.

You do understand, please don’t use that rhetorical device here.

They're not saying they moved to running k8s on a VPS - they're saying they moved to using a VPS instead of k8s (i.e. have escaped the k8s upgrade cycle).

By using terraform docker provider or something else? Like Nomad?
