I don't know what this means, to be honest. Everything I build ends up as a cached Nix derivation output. Delivery is a glorified http get w/ a pre-configured public key. Beyond trivial, and even more so now that the containerd-nix-snapshotter [1] is available. (This is where my shade at the k8s ecosystem comes in, there are millions of dollars in VC funds invested in Golang projects that are obliviated by just... using Nix).

Though, I guess maybe I just need Kargo and not the rest of Argo? Can someone confirm that? I'm here and bothering commenting because I do still see the value of "pipelines" and gating. Just, incredibly skeptical of new K8s-related products using k8sy buzzwords. And this announcement blogpost is dripping in them.
