It's really only in the last couple years that kubernetes has started to get tamed and be more approachable. For the longest time the only way to get a simple dev cluster up on your laptop was to make a VM with like 8-16GB of RAM and four cores dedicated to it--it was pretty outrageous. Nowadays kind, k3s, etc. make it a simple one line install and sip resources. But I agree, there is definitely a misperception that k8s is too complex.

I wouldn't call it a misperception. It does orchestration, service discovery, resilience, secrets management (which is a joke, but still) and whatnot. That's definitely a lot of complexity. Mixing it all together doesn't help with making it easier to manage, on the contrary.
