Ask HN: Why do so many developers hate DORA metrics?
DORA haters and lovers are spread on about 50-50 basis.
Haters say they are gameable & simplify a highly complex process as software delivery into 4 numbers whereas DORA lovers feel the visibility they add based on hard data is a game changer.
Have you implemented DORA in your org? What kind of an experience has it been for you?
