Ask HN: Is anyone using Google Cloud Platform for a non-trivial project?

I've been meaning to deploy a personal project on GCP, but I'm starting to have second thoughts. I knew from the start that there would be some missing features, less choice etc., but I always thought they'd somehow make up for it with enthusiasm and being the 'cool' cloud provider.

Now I am not so sure anymore. For example, link [1]. It's a feature request opened more than 3 years ago for a basic feature: redirecting HTTP to HTTPS in their load balancers. Not only has this not been implemented, but it seems like nobody from GCP is even acknowledging it, despite being the top voted feature request on the website.

Does anyone have any experiences with GCP (good or bad)?
