Does K3s still install its own kubectl? If so where?

the installer symlinks them for you if they don’t already exist

I don't want to tear everything down. What's the right way to get back onto the k3s preferred tools?

create the symlinks yourself? or modify your $PATH?

Right, but I'm having trouble understanding the vars in the linked section of the script.

Ah, cool. Thanks a ton man. I didn't know that the k3s binary is the kubectl.
