Redis became OSI approved again. Also if MinIO and this UI is that amazing, then people would fork it. (Unfortunately I never had good experiences with MinIO, because it was just a bit less complicated than Ceph and the docs and admin tools

Ceph setup has a few magic moments, but after you accept and learn those incantation, it just works! Highly recommend. Used to be easy to get started with their all-in-one container image.

Like I said, it's okay to reject the candidate for submitting something that's implies they are not a good fit. In my interpretation the "righteous indignation" part is that the candidate tried to make sure that they are

Lot of people are very spicy in the comments, but for a mid-level position mind-reading shouldn't be required. Not to mention that the whole problem is that the fucking hiring manager was too slimy to actually go to the technical team
