### Dockershim deprecation

Docker as an underlying runtime is being deprecated. Docker-produced images will continue to work in your cluster with all runtimes, as they always have.
The Kubernetes community [has written a blog post about this in detail](https://blog.k8s.io/2020/12/02/dont-panic-kubernetes-and-docker/) with [a dedicated FAQ page for it](https://blog.k8s.io/2020/12/02/dockershim-faq/).

kubelet performing the TLS Bootstrap properly. Earlier, `kubeadm join` only did the discovery part and exited successfully without checking that the kubelet actually started properly and performed the TLS bootstrap correctly. Now, as kubeadm runs some post-join steps (for example, annotating the Node API object with the CRISocket), `kubeadm join` is now waiting for the kubelet to perform the TLS Bootstrap, and then uses that credential to perform further actions. This also improves the UX, as `kubeadm`...
