I’m David and I greet you from Montreal in Canada where I do open source things between dev ops and dad ops nowadays.
I’ve been using Ansible and contributing to the community in different ways since at least 2014, as far back as version 1.8 or so. I think simplicity is a feature and coming from Puppet, it was a breath of fresh air 
I eventually authored ARA Records Ansible to make my own life easier dealing with millions of playbooks across thousands of hosts back in the OpenStack community. The project turned out to be helpful and useful to people around the world and I think that’s pretty cool.
You can find me on Matrix as @dmsimard:matrix.org and on Mastodon.
