True but you can try:

https://bastillebsd.org/

>Working with containers and Kubernetes means I need to compile about 100 Go projects

Ehhm NO:

pkg install kubectl

It really sound's you dont even read the FreeBSD Handbook.

Keyword in that link is most binaries. I don't want to worry about if binary x won't run and be stuck compiling it for BSD.

That is not the same thing compared to Docker or Podman at all. If your looking to build Docker images locally to test in a kubernetes cluster good luck with bastille.

What about stern, kubie, and the hundred other cli tools that makes managing a cluster much easier?

I get BSD is not for the faint hearted like me who just wants things to work. I'd rather spend my time elsewhere than worrying or running into issues using a esoteric operating system.

Again you did not read, it's a Emulation-Layer you can run the binary (compiled on linux) on freebsd.

>If your looking to build Docker images locally to test in a kubernetes cluster

Why build them locally if you have a cluster in the first place? It's like saying No to Linux because i cannot test my Jails on it.

>What about stern, kubie, and the hundred other cli tools that makes managing a cluster much easier?

I don't know, but i use normally a management station with all the tools and connect with mosh to it. This way i have the freedom to use whatever OS or Device i want.

No problem with that, some people love operating-systems and explore them as a hobby like me, and others just want to work.
