Not trying to be a dick but who needs or even cares about this? I have not seen puppet used in a prod environment for probably a decade at this point.

From the post:

>1. I didn't realize puppet was open core. 2. OpenVox sounds like a text to speech engine. 3. What is the main use case of Puppet / OpenVox in 2025? Same as always? Isn't CM a lot less relevant in the age of platforms like Flatcar and Bottlerocket? 4. Why fork puppet instead of contributing to ansible or salt?

I finally migrated my own setup off of Puppet over the past year. I’m now using my own Python framework that calls Ansible to run tasks on machines.

Puppet was an interesting idea, but it was buggy and the undetermined order of operations got ridiculous at times. Like people are saying on HN, it’s better suited to massive environments with hundreds or thousands of managed VMs. Ansible can work in environments like that too though.
