Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Bare-Metal Kubernetes, Part I: Talos on Hetzner
Hetzner Cloud is officially supported, but that means setting up VPSs in Hetzner's Cloud offering, whereas this project was intended as a more or less independent pure bare-metal cluster. I see they offer Bare Metal support as well, but I haven't dived too deep into it.
I haven't used KubeOne, but I have previously used Syself's https://github.com/syself/cluster-api-provider-hetzner which I believe works in a similar fashion. I think the approach is very interesting and plays right into the Kubernetes Operator playbook and its self-healing ambitions.
That being said, the complexity of the approach, probably in trying to span and resolve inconsistencies across such a wide landscape of providers, caused me quite a bit of grief. I eventually abandoned this approach after having some operator somewhere consistently attempt and fail to spin up a secondary control plane VPS against my wishes. After poring over loads of documentation and half a dozen CRDs in an attempt to resolve it, I threw in my hat.
Of course, Kubermatic is not Syself, and this was about a year ago, so it is entirely possible that both projects are absolutely superb solutions to the problem at this point.

Fly.io Postgres cluster went down for 3 days, no word from them about it
For anyone interested in Kubernetes on Hetzner, there's a really interesting CAPI provider being actively developed:
https://github.com/syself/cluster-api-provider-hetzner
- Syself: Cluster API Provider Hetzner released
- Cluster API Provider Hetzner released
-
How many of you are running kubernetes on prem?
Just a hint running ML Workloads on Hetzner is pretty cheap! You could use for managing k8s: https://github.com/syself/cluster-api-provider-hetzner
-
Syself cluster-api-provider Hetzner v1.0.0-beta.16
we (Syself) release Cluster-API Provider Hetzner v1.0.0-beta.16.
-
NEW ARM-BASED CLOUD SERVER
ah okay they come from the upstream cluster-api project. The caph project implements only the infrastructure provider part of Cluster API.
-
Has anyone set up autoscaling on hetzner?
you can easily use it with https://github.com/syself/cluster-api-provider-hetzner
- Image digest of Go 1.19.7 changed?
-
What's the most sane way to operate a K8s cluster?
I would use cluster-api-provider-hetzner from Syself.

Bare-Metal Kubernetes, Part I: Talos on Hetzner
Speaking of k8s, anyone here know of ready-made solutions for getting XCode (i.e. xcodebuild) running in pods? As far as I'm aware, there are no good solutions for getting XCode running on Linux, so at the moment I'm just futzing about with a virtual-kubelet[0] implementation that spawns MacOS VMs. This works just fine, but the problem seems like such an obvious one that I expect there to be some existing solution(s) I just missed.

Keeping Airflow tasks “cloud-native”
Have you looked into virtual kubelet yet? It allows you to make a virtual node in your on-prem cluster that schedules workloads on services like AWS Fargate or Azure Container Instances.
-
Similar to AWS Fargate provider?
If you are serious about implementing this yourself, you may want to look into virtual kubelet: https://virtual-kubelet.io/

Deploy on prem Kubernetes. What is the best approach paid and unpaid to deploy a cluster on premise with burst to azure/aws? The only need is the ability to have some static pods. I do have a preference for free/open source solutions.
I just stumbled upon this project a while back and don't have experience with it, so I don't know how well it works and what caveats you may face, but there's Virtual Kubelet, which aims to do just that, i.e. running a virtual Kubernetes node outside the cluster. Its Kip provider sounds like the thing you're looking for.

How to use the GitOps model to create, update and manage applications at the edge with KubeEdge and Argo
Kubeedge docs are light on self-justification... How does https://github.com/kubeedge/kubeedge differ from https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet or just running a regular kubelet on that edge machine?

Autoscaling Redis applications on Kubernetes 🚀🚀
If this sounds interesting, do check out Virtual Nodes in Azure Kubernetes Service to see how you can use them to seamlessly scale your applications to Azure Container Instances and benefit from quick provisioning of pods, and only pay per second for their execution time. The virtual nodes add-on for AKS, is based on the open source project Virtual Kubelet which is an open source Kubernetes kubelet implementation.

Infrastructure Engineering - Diving Deep
Use cases like these are made possible by projects like KubeEdge , K3s and Virtual Kubelets. You can read more about how they power the edge with different architectures and compromises here.

Evolving Container Security with Linux User Namespaces
This is a complicated question to answer.
This isn't my expertise (the cluster orchestration system), but I can answer to the best of my abilities: Titus, today is a system that sits on top of Kubernetes, and uses Kubernetes components to do its thing, but we've substituted many of the systems with our own. For example, closer to my area of knowledge, we've used our own executor / provider along with the Virtual Kubelet project (https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet) instead of Kubelet.
We're exploring where we can leverage the Kubernetes ecosystem, adapt components, or help contribute changes back that others can leverage to enable our use of more COTS components of Kubernetes.
tl;dr: We're swapping out the engines while in flight
