Porter looks cool and I would love to not hand roll kubernetes stuff.
But the pricing looks curious. Their "default infrastructure" is $300 a month set up in AWS plus usage costs on Porter. It's already 6x what I'm spending on Heroku, why would I pay usage costs per CPU to Porter if they're not running any CPUs?
Honest question really because I'm interested, it just seems far out of line price-wise. I would totally pay for help managing infrastructure, just not server usage. It would make more sense to pay for the things I'm actually using or a fee per developer.
