This I disagree with a lot. Ansible does have a lot of unfinished playbooks out there or half baked ones. But there is solid documentation there which makes it pretty clear how to properly design things. Have a feeling people just don't read it. For work related use cases, I find it very unlikely you would ever pull in a git repo or playbook from galaxy. Coming from Puppet, Chef I always thought Puppet was in a bad state but then I realized it is 2022 and Ansible has exactly zero roles for LDAP that work, or even resemble a thing that would ever make sense to run in a real installation. Also, if we're talking about what code would run on which server, I do not see where other configuration management tools would perform better. Have you seen the humongous mess one needs to do in Puppet and Hiera when one wants to build a configuration that is multi-os and multi-arch (like just a simple Debian/Ubuntu plus x86_64/aarch scenario not even Windows)? Or even what it would be like if one also manages firmware blobs there? If I may be so frank... configuration management is a shit show on every available solution. And I am saying that as someone actively being a part of these ecosystems and contributing.
