Yeah, right? You'd be amazed about what people can achieve with bash scripts and kubernetes containers.
The crux of my argument is: you probably don't need postgres in kubernetes on the cloud (just use the damn cloud api to manage your database), but if for any reason you want to, manage a postgres with kubernetes it's like managing it with systemd.
Way more involved, but doable. Great part is: just as vast majority of people don't write their own systemd units or postgres management scripts, they can use kubernetes operators and benefit from the open source knowledge and ecosystem.
