I use Docker Swarm for my personal projects. It works, and when it doesn't, I can hit it with a hammer and knock all my sites offline for a few minutes and no one will notice. Then it comes back and I can forget about it for awhile again.
I'm looking at switching to Kubernetes. It will be more effort to set up and maintain, it will cost more in terms of infrastructure, and I have to write more automation to handle side effects. The benefit would be that I then know how to do this when I inevitably have to set up Kubernetes for my day job (I'm a consultant).
Automating the installation and configuration of apps on a raw VM would be far easier and make more sense for personal projects. I don't do this because I already know how to do this.
