Same here. I started with k8slens, but moved to k9s when k8slens started requiring the login. I didn't know about Openlens, which seems to be a fork of the open source portion of k8slens. But I've gotten pretty good at k9s now, so I'll probably stick with it.

In either case, both tools have made me less proficient with kubectl. Now I mostly use kubectl to apply yaml manifests. Editing a manifest in k9s is not as straightforward as I would like, and it's nicer to have a local copy of the file.
