K3s – Lightweight Kubernetes

I've been laughing myself of for some minutes, not because the project is uninteresting (I'll be testing it next week on ARM, probably), but because I've decided to call this "Kubernetres" (Being 'TRES' three in Spanish)

That is amazing branding for the Spanish / Portuguese market. Well done.

I believe it goes:

Kubernetes -> K8s -> "kates" -> k3s

This is correct we shortened it to "kates" -> k3s (Rancher employee)

I'm guessing they sliced the "8" down the middle which makes a "3"

They have a "5 less than K8S" tagline. I don't know if that means 5 fewer features, 5 fewer dependencies, or just "less than half the size".
