Kubernetes, as an industry standard that a lot of people complain about is just a sitting duck waiting to be disrupted.

Anybody who doesn't have the money, time or engineering resources will jump on whatever appear as a decent alternative.

My intuition is that alternative already exist but I can't see it...

A bit like Spring emerged as an alternative to J2EE or what HTMX is to React & co.

Is it k3s or something more radical?

Is it on a chinese Github?
