The TLDR: > We tackled critical container image bloat on our Sealos platform, fixing a severe disk space exhaustion issue by shrinking an 800GB, 272-layer image to just 2.05GB.
They say they made a 800GB container image, so your issue is about singular vs plural?
Regardless, I don't really get why anyone would self report like this. Is next article going to be about how they don't encrypt passwords and when they accidentally dropped prod DB they could restore account from logs because it had the passwords in clear text?
In fairness the article is LLM vomit and could be two paragraphs, can't blame people for not reading it.
