So what should we use for a local "kubernetes" stand in on mac os?

  minikube. It works with every hypervisor (or even old docker desktop) and spins up a linux VM to run all the kubernetes services, your containers, etc. The CLI is dead simple to learn (minikube start and you're done) and the tool is endorsed, used and maintained by the official kubernetes team.

  There's always minikube/k3s, but I think the article overblows the death of Docker a bit. Docker no longer being required in k8s is going to hurt its potential in "prod" for sure, but the `docker run` style commands for running a db locally will work for a long long time.

  HashiCorp's Nomad is decent, but I don't think Docker competes with k8s at this point.

  This article seems to be focusing on using Docker on production servers, rather than as a Developer tool, which is where Docker the company are focused now. As a developer tool I'm not aware of another option which has a similar setup. You can , of course, manually spin up VMs and install kind/minikube/k3s on them, but that may be more work than you want.
