K3s – Lightweight Kubernetes
I've been eyeing Kairos [1] which is an OS lifecycle management system for k3s which looks like a nice way to deploy k3s.

Are there any dedicated linux distros that come out of the box with k8s?
kairos.io – Turn your existing distro into an immutable OS with k8s. It is the logical successor of what k3os intended (kind of).
-
What's the state of immutable distros? Do you use them?
Check out this TNS blog and Kairos blog about the Kairos project. It is a meta distribution, which addresses the issues around immutable distros at a more fundamental level while providing much more flexibility.

How to create cluster?
Kairos could fit the bill here - I don't think it supports Windows but it does have a cool Network Boot project called AuroraBoot.

Poll ! What is your OS of choice to run k8s ON PREM ?
Did you heard about https://github.com/kairos-io/kairos ? It supports any base OS (Fedora, openSUSE, Alpine, Rockylinux, Ubuntu, ..), and follows strongly the same K3OS principles. It is immutable, with an A/B upgrading mechanism and it is container based so it is easy to customize to fit your needs. It is community-driven, with no strings attached to any distribution or vendor.

Suggest container Linux distro go to deploy Kubernetes on a Bare Metal Server
Yes Kairos. KaiOS is a mobile Linux distribution unrelated to Kubernetes.

Introducing Kairos 1.5: A Smarter, More Secure Way to Manage Your Infrastructure
up to now we have MetalLB and Kubevirt, but here is a list of the ones that were brought up by the community (and planning to add): https://github.com/kairos-io/kairos/issues/592, feel free to add your feedback and tell what you would like to see there!

Ask HN: Are there any open source forks of nomad smd consul?
Opinionated meaning it picks, install, patches your CNI/Ingress/Load Balancer/DNS Server/Metrics Server/Monitoring Setup.
k3s is probably most well known as it ships with bunch of preinstall software: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s so you can just start throwing yaml files at cluster and handling workloads. It's what I use for my homelab.
Paid things I've heard of include OpenStack and SideroLabs. Haven't used personally by SRE coworkers say good things about them.

Linux fu: getting started with systemd
For self-hosting I've found https://k3s.io to be really good from the SUSE people. Works on basically any Linux distro and makes self-hosting k8s not miserable.

Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder
Yes it’s going to depend on which k8s distribution you’re using. We have work in-progress for k3s to natively support nix-snapshotter: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/pull/9319
For other distributions, nix-snapshotter works with official containerd releases so it’s just a matter of toml configuration and a systemd unit for nix-snapshotter.
We run Kubernetes outside of NixOS, but yes the NixOS modules provided by the nix-snapshotter certainly make it simple.

K3s Traefik Ingress - configured for your homelab!
I recently purchased a used Lenovo M900 Think Centre (i7 with 32GB RAM) from eBay to expand my mini-homelab, which was just a single Synology DS218+ plugged into my ISP's router (yuck!). Since I've been spending a big chunk of time at work playing around with Kubernetes, I figured that I'd put my skills to the test and run a k3s node on the new server. While I was familiar with k3s before starting this project, I'd never actually run it before, opting for tools like kind (and minikube before that) to run small test clusters for my local development work.

Building a no-code Helm UI with Windmill - Part 1
I’ve created a local cluster with K3S and installing Windmill could not be simpler with just one chart to configure, which already has sane defaults to get started. For this demo we will also configure workers to passthrough environment variables to our scripts so that they have access to the Kubernetes API server for later.
