Ask HN: Is there a low cost way to learn real K8s, after exhausting minikube?

Ive messed around with Minikube, but now I want to implement the real deal. I want to implement a docker registry, blue green deployents, monitoring, request tracing, log aggregation, etc, but all for my own learning.

When I looked at pricing out Azure/AWS, it was like $200 a month for a 4 node cluster.

So HN, if you had to learn K8s on your own, what would you do after minikube?

Also, am I just being dumb? Can I just use minikube to learn all this? At some point I feel like having real nodes with real networks and control planes is better learning.
