Good suggestion.

For me, use Docker if you want k8s started up every time you start Docker, and easy ingress. I don't love having a cluster always running, so I'm keeping the k8s function off by default.

Use kind if you want multi-node clusters, and a production-like simulation of your environment.

Use minikube for a straightforward dev experience, where you have control over k8s version, resource allocation, and don't need meaningful configuration of the control plane.
