Yea part of the motivation to create Ory Kratos was that Keycloak was too clunky and cumbersome for us to use, also hard to scale and a bunch of other issues - so we wrote our own basically.

Oh, I wanted to escape the Kratos hell by migrating to Keycloak and you say Kratos was created to actually be a better alternative? Well I have to say I had a very hard time implementing browser flows, configuration is a mess, not everything working through yaml configs works as env var. Documentation is a mess. All in all, it took months what should have been weeks at most. Sorry for the negativity, but it is one of the software pieces I really wish I have avoided.
