I’ve been using Ansible for almost 10 years now and one thing I learned is to keep things simple, most issues I had with Ansible in the past were due to me taking the wrong approach to problem solving. In way, it forced me to not overcomplicate things.

I’m not the biggest fan of it, but I do prefer it over other IaCs.

edit: tbh my biggest issue with Ansible is other people who ask me “why not wrtie a bash script instead?”
