DevOps like Agile was then hacked to pieces and had its corpse paraded around by sleazy consultants and idiotic management that was told "you can save all this money on all your infrastructure people by making your developers do all the ops stuff to." And who doesn't like saving money on those useless crusty old system administrators that don't seem to do anything except whine for "more disk space" if they were so smart they would've prevented that outage la da t week where the logging volume filled up.
Finally the toolmakers sold the idea that DevOps was something you could buy. Just like the vendors convinced management that buy purchasing Jira you were now agile, now if you have a CI/CD pipeline you are now doing DevOps. But you still can't release without getting approval from the release committee and you can't actually provision a new host in the cloud until you have filled out the requsite approval forms, but key for some reason we uprooted our monolith and threw it on kubenetes so we are doing DevOps.
It really feels like relieving the Agile cycle all over again in every detail. Just wish I could figure out the next big fad so I could get in on this money printer.
PS. If you use the term DevSecOps or DevSecFinOps unironiclly your living proof the Dunning-Kruger effect.
