Ansible is great, I just wish it would automatically cleanup stuff on the server when I remove parts of the config. I know it's not the goal, but I dream about a tool that works this way. I get many leftover stuff over years
We fixed that with roles that manage both install and uninstall
That works but that's only useful if you have many machines. I have a single server so it's the same burden as doing it manually. If only the uninstall step could be completely automated by just reverting the install step
Not quite, if you write the role to manage the life cycle of a bit of software then uninstall is part of that life cycle.
But I do see that investment in time looks more then just do it by hand
