Now people do instagram reels about #kubernetes. One showed up in my feed and it had wrong and misleading information. According to that one, google developes k8s. 🙃
I had the sudden urge of “someone is wrong on the internet”.
@lili Nowadays it's crazy how many false or misleading information are spread around 🤯
@lili #Kuberntes originally developed at google and released as opensource in 2014, then it got maintained by CNCF after that

@babbili I am aware of that. I contributed to it and a lot of people still develop it that are not at google and that bothered me. The lack of credit to non googlers who contribute to the project daily.

Also cncf does not actually maintain it, it’s just where the project lives, it’s a foundation. Mantainers are made up of a lot of companies.

@babbili with that said, google does still contribute a lot and it was inspired by internal borg project. But dismissing community contributions of an open source project like the person I mentioned, misses the whole point of open source community.
@lili that's true, it's mostly happening by contributors
