I've been reading into k3s out of curiosity, which as I understand is supposed to be one of the simpler ones, and even as someone who works as a developer and maintains a small homelab, it just makes me feel utterly clueless lol. Which is to say, I'll definitely be giving Nomad a good look.
Oh and if you do happen to have any other more newbie friendly suggestions, I'd love to hear about them!
