Repo owner here, I just created this account, I'm a long time HN lurker.

I was surprised to find this on Hacker News, I wanted to wait until the stable release before posting on HN, but thank you for posting :)

This project is still in alpha stage, but please feel free to critique; I'd appreciate it.

Edit 1: After reading some of the comments, I want to clarify a few things:

- Because it is currently in the alpha stage, I do not host anything important on it.

- This is also my learning environment, I use Kubernetes in my day job.

- Yes it is overkill ;)

Edit 2: Wording

Thanks for the project! Once deployed, how do you keep everything up to date?

[khuedoan]

I'm currently bumping the versions manually (via a commit), but I plan to automate that with system upgrade controller [1] and Dependabot [2] (or similar)

Your stack looks a lot like my lab setup!!

Mine is based around VMs using K3OS but I have also been looking at thinkstations and other cheap Intel-T CPU workstations.

How do you find disk performance and reliability?

[khuedoan]

The performance is pretty good, but I didn't get a chance to test the reliability because I keep nuking the cluster to try new things :P

This looks very interesting. Already saved your github repo for later use. Also, overkill; what is that?

[sandGorgon]

do you use k3s in production as well ?

[khuedoan]

Is production == my day job? If so we don't, we use managed Kubernetes (we used to manage our own clusters but they will be decommissioned soon).

[coopreme]

Can you go into the reasons you went to managed vs self owned K8S?

This is a beautiful writeup. I find these posts really interesting to read. Thanks for sharing!
