Ok we should probably dive deeper into this, but good chance if you are here and have made it this far you it would probably be a fine choice. The choice is quite time and skill dependant.

First thing up, if you like copy pasting thing into your homelab, changing a few config options, but mostly running it as the docs instructed, kubernetes is not for you. The homelab/self hosting space is heavily reliant on docker compose, 90% of the things you want to run will likely have a docker command, and likely a docker compose example that you can copy paste and get running right away. Maybe 5% of projects have something for kubernetes, you Will have to do it yourself.
Kubernetes is very DIY in the self hosting space, and not very plug and play.
