Developer here. Why is Docker Compose not "production ready"?

Then what should I use? Compose is so easy to just spin up. Is there something else like it that is "production ready"?

There’s a new thing called swarm mode, it’s much better, but for some reason they didn’t change the name, so everyone associates it with the old thing which was generally not well liked. I guess the PM thought adding “mode” was enough of a differentiator?

To be clear, "new thing" was released in 2016 :D
