The DO API kind of feels like a hackathon project that never got finished. That said, it's a terrific start and perfectly functional... just not polished. DO is young but they come from the same team that built other hosting services -- which is why I find it odd that they've made a few of the same mistakes a lot of hosting providers make (re: security). I think we can give them a pass on that too since they're so relatively new. Linode is great but I definitely see DO winning out over the next few years. As for the people who work there? I'm sure they're reading this, and I don't mean to offend, but I think a lot of them need to take a look at the way they've handled a few of their recent security issues and the tone their responses have had. It didn't come across as 100% professional to me. Happy to cite claims on request.
