My deployment platform is a shell script

I have a very similar system[1] for my personal projects, only I use GitHub actions to push a docker image to ECR and a commit to a config repo bumping the tag. I then have a cronjob to pull the config repo and reconcile using docker compose.
I wouldn't use it for serious stuff, but it's been working great for my random personal projects (biggest gap is if something crashes it'll stay crashed until manual intervention currently)

Majority of web apps could just run on a single server

For my personal stuff that doesn't get any traffic I cobbled together some scripts to manage containers / SSL here https://github.com/mnahkies/shoe-string-server
I don't think I ever got around to making it self healing if a container dies, but it does support gitops style deployments through a cronjob / conf repo similar to argocd
It's been running happily on a <$10 / month aws lightsail instance for a few years now, though tbh I'd still reach for k8s for anything serious

Interestingly this seems like a pretty popular problem to solve.
I made a similar thing recently as well, although with the goal to handle ingress and monitoring out the box as well, whilst still able to run comfortably on a small box.
I took a fairly similar approach, leveraging docker-compose files, and using a single data directory for ease of backup (although it's on my to-do list to split out conf/data).
If there was a way to get a truly slim and easy to setup k8s compatible environment I'd probably prefer that, but I couldn't find anything that wouldn't eat most of my small servers ram
