No, so far I see two targets: Debian & Alpine Linux. Why those two?

Alpine Linux is the smallest container distro out there and by many
preferred, as it is very small AND you get layer sharing because all
your other images use alpine linux as a base as well.

I also don't understand why you assume docker and k8s are using
different containers. They don't.

And to my knowledge OpenVZ almost dead.

And LXC uses operating system images, so not a case either.

That's also a misconception. If you need postfix and dovecot, you run
two containers.
