Autopilot docs need update
The autopilot docs points to an update server url that doesn't exist.
I filed an issue at the repo that feeds the update server too: https://github.com/k0sproject/update/issues/6
I'm not sure what this means, is autopilot no longer preferred? Is the update server just out of date? Please advise.
Is the update server just out of date?
Yes, this is the case. we haven't seen much traction for this and thus things have fallen out of sync a bit
Autopilot itself is still alive and kicking, we're using that ourselves at k0smotron and many others are using it too

That's good to hear. The docs and the update server could use an update though, as the described steps do not work and thus make the feature not attractive to users.

Hi @jnummelin I'd like to work on this
What I propose is to remove the update server URL (https://updates.k0sproject.io) from the docs and add a short note explaining that the update feed is currently inactive.
Does that sound good ?
Reworking the update server project to reflect github releases on this project via Github tasks would be preferable to me :-)
I agree, it would be super nice to update the update server data automatically based on releases
What we could do also is some sort of script that populates the channels and data somewhat automatically. Bu that I mean that we could run the said script that would create the needed data which someone could commit into the update repo.
it would be also nice to provide a simple update server as docker image with configurable base download url which can be self hosted then. And with every k0s release the image can be automatically updated to reflect the supported versions.
