I've been messing with both microk8s and k3s for my homelab setup, and initially i was all about k3s, because, well, rancher.

also, it seems to consume a tiny bit less CPU/Memory for me than k3s for some reason.

Gosh, I wonder whether there could be a connection between this being a state-sponsored attack by the CCP government and TP-Link being a Chinese company under its control.
