What a sad thing to say. If you picked a free open source tool that was not right for your use case maybe you should blame yourself.

This negativity is unnecessary.

Mitchell has had little to do with the issues Terraform faced and how things went. That responsibility belongs to others in eng leadership.

While I'm not privy to any insider knowledge, from the outside it seems highly unlikely that Mitchell had anything to do with the trajectory of Terraform for the last few years. Also, it's possible that he wouldn't be able to defend himself against such arguments, having potentially signed some paperwork with his former company.

I think you should spend some time reflecting on this take and whether it makes sense for a (presumably competent) adult to have posted it.

I hope you look back on this comment someday and are ashamed of it. It's unnecessary and unnecessarily harsh.

Could you link to a few examples of the most painful PR denials?

Isn't Terraform still considered one of the better cross-cloud automation tools?
