XTerm: It's Better Than You Thought (2021)
Nomad[1] is one alternative that gives you the same infra-as-code warm and fuzzies but isn't a behemoth like k8s. It's simple to deploy, simple to operate and unless you're truly scaling big, it probably does everything you need.
I'm sure there are others in the same league that I don't know about. Maybe I'm just getting old but I'll never understand the rush to use k8s in teams of <100 developers.

Advice on making my self-hosting easier to maintain (currently using terraform/kubernetes)
Hashicorp Nomad? I ran it across a bunch of raspberry pis and proxmox VMs/LXCs. Being a Hashicorp product it plays well with Terraform. The only reason I swapped it out for k3s was upskilling for work.

To Infinity and Beyond: Our Nomad Migration is complete!
Lob’s core API has been fully migrated to HashiCorp's Nomad, Lob’s Next Generation service platform. This is a major milestone for the Nomad Project, the Platform Team, and Lob Engineering. This migration is the culmination of a year of R&D, months of practice migrating other Lob services, and weeks of work on this particular service. It’s absolutely worth celebrating for the complexity and customer impact.
Most of our API’s migration to Nomad happened in August, but the key feature of autoscaling was not working as expected. This turned out to be a bug in Nomad which James Douglas tracked down. The issue was recently fixed and autoscaling works as expected, completing the migration!

Jail Manager in 2022?
There's also https://pot.pizzamig.dev/ which even has a Nomad(https://www.nomadproject.io/) driver in case you want to "orchestrate" the jails(as in deploy many jails at the same time across multiple servers)

How to Convert Kubernetes Manifests into Nomad Jobspecs
The check stanza runs a health check on the service Since the service is registered to Consul, the health check runs on Consul. The above health check is configured to run every 10 seconds, and is given 5 seconds for the health check query to succeed. Health checks in Nomad are similar to Kubernetes health checks.

Opensource Docker Management?
Not sure if it fits here, and might be a little more complex than what you’re looking for, but Nomad is definitely worth a look.

Problem when compiling LaTeX to PDF
I happen to have seen this one before. Apparently crun (container runtime) is not correctly mirroring my host vboxusers group permissions into the container, as identified in this crun issue. I haven't drilled down to see what the fix is. For now I have just done this hacky, terrible terrible don't do this at home workaround:

Rediscovering GNOME
Now coming to Podman, it is a container engine developed by Red Hat Inc. , which means it's a tool that helps run applications in a container. Containers are like virtual machines, but they are much lighter and more efficient, so they use fewer resources on your computer.
