My experience has been it's not a lack of knowledge it's a combination of inertia, cargo culting, and give-a-shit
There are so many great tools that solve so many problems but life is filled with trade-offs and many people don't value the same trade-offs that I do, so they just bash their head against Terraform (or $other_legacy_tool) because "it's what we use"
I was really hoping that Earthly or Dagger were going to catch on due to the enormous number of folks that complain about not being able to run GitHub Actions (or GLCI) locally, on top of bitching about yaml alllllllllll the fucking time. But, same problem, IMHO: inertia is so strong
The fundamental issues is that devops guys don't have a budget with which to buy tools like Dagger (or Earthly), so the market is limited to companies that have tech-literate management - very small.
