I've used both solutions, and ultimately, I think itscontained/secret-manager is better than external-secrets.
Their doc was re-jiggled a few days ago and I agree its made it look like it's inexistant. There's not a _ton_ of it, but it's there[0][1]

edit: found the link in the Godaddy repo to "secret-manager": https://github.com/godaddy/kubernetes-external-secrets/issue...
I was mistaken when I said "secret-manager supplanted external-secrets". It's a Golang rewrite from a user.
There has been talks of moving one of these solutions to https://github.com/external-secrets ownership, but nothing has happened around that yet.
