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.

How to enable startup probe on GKE 1.16?
FROM postgres:11CMD sleep 30 && postgres I'm reusing this example from the same issue with microk8s where I could solve it by changing the kubelet and kubeapi-server configuration files (see https://github.com/ubuntu/microk8s/issues/770 in case you're interested). I assume this is not possible with GKE clusters as they don't expose these files, probably for good reasons.

How to configure kubernetes (microk8s) to use local docker images?
$ kubectl get podsNAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGEbackend-deployment-66cff7d4c6-gwbzf 0/1 ImagePullBackOff 0 18s Before that it was ErrImagePull. So, my question is, how to tell it to use local docker images? Somewhere on the internet I read that I need to build images using microk8s.docker but it seems to be removed.

I was so excited to join this community
There's a whole community of hobbyists building Raspberry Pi clusters, porting things to work on various Arm processors, exploring and contributing to minimalist distros like k0s and microk8s, etc.

no persistent volumes available for this claim and no storage class is set
same pvc worked fine on "GKE" (Google Kubernetes Engine) but failing in my local cluster using microk8s

Is Kubernetes Still Just an Ops Topic?
Local Kubernetes Clusters: It is now possible to run Kubernetes on local machines with tools such as Kubernetes in Docker (kind), minikube or MicroK8s. This allows developers to run their first experiments completely isolated from others and with low risk and low cost.

Kubernetes Development Environments – A Comparison
Local Kubernetes clusters are clusters that are running on the individual computer of the developer. There are many tools that provide such an environment, such as Minikube, microk8s, k3s, or kind. While they are not all the same, their use as a development environment is quite comparable.

Local Cluster vs. Remote Cluster for Kubernetes-Based Development
Since the developer is the only one who has to access this cluster for development, local clusters can be a feasible solution for this purpose. Over time, several solutions have emerged that are particularly made for running Kubernetes in local environments. The most important ones are Kubernetes in Docker (kind), MicroK8s, minikube and k3s. For a comparison of these local Kubernetes options, you can look at this post.

The Journey of Adopting Cloud-Native Development
Another very important distinction of this level is that developers have direct access to Kubernetes for the first time. While it is not strictly necessary, the standard case for the Kubernetes access with these tools is to use a local Kubernetes cluster, i.e. a Kubernetes cluster started with tools such as minikube, kind or MicroK8s on the local computer of the developer.

Multipass I love Multipass for quick Ubuntu instances spun up for testing or as a playground. Wish I would have known and used of it sooner.

VMs on macOS using Apple's native Virtualization.Framework
If you just need Ubuntu then you can try "Multipass" from Canonical (https://multipass.run/). Works quite well on my M2 Air. I haven't tried using Linux GUI with it though as I need only terminal based VMs.

Simulate an Ubuntu-like VM inside macOS
Multipass is pretty clutch for trivial VMs on MacOs for sure. I use it for a bunch of ssh jump boxes running vpns to different sites. The macOS build does not support custom images (lest not without [some truly insane hacks](https://github.com/canonical/multipass/issues/1260#issuecomm...) , which doesn’t really matter for what I use it for but it is kind of a bummer. If you need something with a little more grunt but don’t want to go full blown with writing your own QEMU tooling or fussing with something like UTM or Parallels, [quickemu](https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu) is a really nice qemu wrapper with sane defaults that can expose a whole lot of power if you need it.

VirtualBox 7.0.10 download links have disappeared
I would be cautious or even distrustful of using anything from Oracle. VirtualBox components come under three different licenses - GPLv2, personal use & evaluation license, and an enterprise license. Their VirtualBox license FAQ [1] gives them enough leeway to change future licenses at will. If an exploit is discovered in your old VirtualBox and they've changed the license, you're out of luck.
We've moved our development to KVM and Virtual Machine Manager on Linux [3] and UTM on Mac [4]. There are other options to run your VM, such as Multipass [5] or VirtualBuddy [6].
On a digressive topic - it was fun migrating our legacy application server stack from Oracle Java (old & poorly considered decision) to OpenJDK, thanks to their license [2].

Hands-on Kubernetes and maybe go for a certification
If you have a reasonably beefy computer, you can always try setting up Multipass and set up 2-3 nodes for a k8s cluster, it's how I'm doing my own certification training. I do have a k3s Raspberry Pi cluster, but with Pi prices being what they are still it'd almost be cheaper to do a cloud setup. ☹️
What are some alternatives?
microshift - A small form factor OpenShift/Kubernetes optimized for edge computing
lima - Linux virtual machines, with a focus on running containers
rancher - Complete container management platform
colima - Container runtimes on macOS (and Linux) with minimal setup
k3s - Lightweight Kubernetes
