On: Ask HN: Have You Left Kubernetes?

Still going strong in clients works, big companies.

For personal projects I roll with just docker.

I'm bothered by the minimal requirements of k8s, I want to deploy on 5$ machines

Take a look at k3s[0] for lighter k8s.

K3s is awesome!

I used it to host several small projects in cheap virtual machines. The setup is very straightforward. I guess we just need better editing support of YAMLs.

Thanks for the recommendation!

do you run docker swarm or anything?

or just containers on the virtual machine?

I would love to deploy with docker and no other orchestration tools.
