I use https://k3s.io and it's super simple. You will have a basic cluster running in less than 5 minutes. There's even an unofficial installer for it (https://github.com/alexellis/k3sup) which makes the bootstrapping even easier.
-
Give a try to rke2 https://docs.rke2.io/ We are using it on EC2 and it is really good. If you want something quick, I think kubeadm is the way to go
-
WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
-
flintlock
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking MicroVMs. Create and manage the lifecycle of MicroVMs backed by containerd.
Have a look at Liquid Metal using microvms on baremetal and using flintlock. It's pretty frigging awesome. :)

We went with Kubespray, pretty solid and since we already had Ansible in place it was pretty easy!

I ended up writing my own, twice actually. Just re-wrote my entire k8s setup for my new homelab. It's published here on gitlab.com. It's not very well documented since it's for personal use but I think it emphasizes how easy it is to setup kubeadm and why there is little reason to make it more complicated than it needs to be.

InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

At my personal testlab/cluster, i use k3s deployed with my ansible role
-
There is another very good ansible role for k3s, actually better than mine

hetzner-k3s
A CLI tool to create and manage Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner Cloud using the lightweight distribution k3s by Rancher.
If you somehow use hetzner, this one is great too for k3s
