Consider microk8s as k3s alternative
I've done some digging on the internet and some people advice you to use microk8s instead of k3s. Some advantages:
- It comes with nginx ingress and metallb out of the box, while k3s comes with traefik and servicelb
- It's closer to standard k8s distributions, so documentation of k8s is more likely to be applicable on it
- It's installed / managed by Snap instead of a random script from the internet
On the other hand, from what I found out so far:
- k3s is quicker to install and might have a smaller cpu/memory footprint
- k3s already works for us
This issue is super low priority. I mostly created the issue because I already tried out microk8s in !355 (closed)
