You most likely don’t need kerosene. They’ll tell you to get kerosene to prevent the oil from gelling up, but I’ve had an outside tank for 5+ winters with no problems using heating oil and an anti-gelling additive like this https://powerservice.com/psp_product/diesel-fuel-supplement-cetane-boost/
Not that heating oil is cheap, but it’s less than kerosene

The delivery guy once told me that’s all they do is put additive in when they fill, but they tack on a certain amount per gallon that ends up being way more than if you just bought the additive and regular oil. He showed me the jug and recommended I just do it myself

Off-road diesel works fine. I've done it.
Get yourself a few cans that will ONLY be used for diesel.
The difference between diesel and kerosene is taxes.
