I prefer Minikube over Kind, because Minikube supports a lot more options and features, and has integrated the same features as Kind. Kind has not had a new release for almost a year.

The kind binary is decoupled from the node images that make up your cluster. V1.23.3 published 3 days ago

You can also provide any kubeadm config options you want, as kind bootstraps with upstream kubeadm
