Kubernetes isn't something I'd put in the same sentence as 'easy'. Docker is a close contender for the same. I still recall the day when my local Docker builds necessitated a new router to properly manage streaming traffic at home while I downloaded a few GBs of layer images. Or the time I wanted to setup a 'simple' hosted Kubernetes cluster of my own in my lab for testing, only to discover the nightmare that is networking on it. Then there was the grim discovery that Docker containers were much more sensitive to the hosting environment than I had assumed, resulting in some fun "but it worked and tested fine" moments. Did they all work eventually for me? Yes. Was it simple? Not by my standards. If you find all that simple, kudos to you.
