This isn't a zero-sum game. If SCALE's default is to provide "enterprise" clients Kubernetes deployment pipelines, fine. Simple single app deployment built on top of that meant for users who want a way to deploy simple apps with as few clicks as possible? Great. Happy it's there, appreciate the work. Doesn't mean we can't have flexibility for other options. I don't see the problem.
There aren't winners and losers in this. Unless the concern is not enough people will bother with Truecharts? In which case, I don't know what to tell you. I tried it, appreciate the work, got several apps working fine - it's not for me. For starters, I don't want to rely on a single, community-maintained resource for curated apps, nor is the docker-deploy button a good alternative. If SCALE actually takes a hard line on "this is the only option" as far as apps are concerned then that's when I stop using it.
Same with the whole "put it in a VM" option. That's dumb and misses the point. We can do that with CORE today if we want. I don't want to deal with the overhead of a VM, NFS mounts, and all the other faff involved.
