Sharing a simple function to switch kube configs per shell session
I can highly recommend kubie: https://github.com/sbstp/kubie I use it exactly because it launches a sub-shell with the choosen context and no other.

Kubernetes is a cloud operating system
Yeah, fair points.
Regarding (3) there are tools for that like kubie. I've still shot myself in the foot before.

What are your favorite tools you use to manage/work with kubernetes?
kubie. I don't use it for context switching (still prefer kubectx!) but kubie exec is a really powerful tool for executing the same command across multiple contexts at once.

What daily terminal based tools are you using for cluster management?
To anyone visiting here, I got a lot of feedback for new tools (which I haven't tried yet), both on Youtube and here, so I compiled it into a list: A comment on Lens: Initially I wanted to include Lens in the video but decided it's a bit different in that it's not a CLI / TUI. Many users shared bad experience with Lens, mainly around performance and a large amount of requests it shoots at the cluster API to a point where some companies banned it. These are the tools (I may add a video review on if anyone thinks it's worth it): * https://github.com/kubermatic/fubectl - for an improved kubectl experience * https://github.com/particledecay/kconf - for those with complex kubeconfig changes requirements * https://github.com/MuhammedKalkan/OpenLens - an open version of Lens (note the above before using) * https://github.com/hidetatz/kubecolor - colored kubectl output :) * https://github.com/astefanutti/kubebox - the K9s little brother? * https://github.com/bergerx/kubectl-status - human friendly resource status output

Managing Kubernetes config files
See my other comment re: kconf. It's as simple as kconf add /my/file.conf. You could also pipe in from stdin (like if you're reading from Vault): vault kv get -field=kubeconfig /path/to/conf | kconf add.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing kubie and kconf you can also consider the following projects:
kubectx - Faster way to switch between clusters and namespaces in kubectl
kubeswitch - The kubectx for operators.
kubecm - Manage your kubeconfig more easily.
kube - Rust Kubernetes client and controller runtime
jqp - A TUI playground to experiment with jq
kubeswitch
kubecolor - colorizes kubectl output
konfig - konfig helps to merge, split or import kubeconfig files
