It's not the cost or complexity that really bothers me (that was just a side rant hehe), more the vendor "productisation" of all the tools. After all, in many ways open source stuff is often lower level with the extra complexity that involves. With open source tools (hell, even they are often turning into products now) there was always a feeling you could dig in and understand them, then join the community and contribute, and even shape their future. Now tools are just things to consume on the vendors terms. Maybe the open pendulum will swing back again in 10yrs - probably at the hands of something like the Cloud Native Foundation, rather than the last peak 10yrs ago driven by Linux distros and some key apps/languages as well as dissatisfaction with MS etc.
