Kubernetes scales down pretty well, there's a few canned single-machine versions. I've been playing with k3s lately at work (if this works out, it should lead to things running on a proper HA cluster), and I'll probably also move over some of the standalone containers I have at home (which are all single-instance standalone things, currently using podman as a systemd service).

Docker compose is still orders of magnitude easier to use and often sufficient.
