Man, judging from your other comments, you must really have a bone to pick with DigitalOcean.
For one, AWS wasn't the first cloud provider to offer managed kubernetes. Two, every major cloud provider pretty much offers some sort of k8s offering. Third, EVERY cloud provider is trying to play catch up to AWS, that's not specific to DigitalOcean.
"Linode fails to offer basic cloud products that every other cloud provider has." FTFY
