Looks great! I see your tool uses Hetzner block volumes for storage. How do you manage your data backups (as Hetzner does not offer anything for their block storage volumes as far as I know).

My current setup is also on Hetzner. 1 master and 3 worker nodes. Managed by Rancher and I use Longhorn (also from Rancher Labs) for storage. It runs stable for two years now. But looking for a simpler solution, so I looked into k3s and k0s last week -- will also look into your tool ;-).

Give it a try, looking forward to hearing what you think :)

For backups I just use Velero. It can back up any kind of volumes with the Restic integration, and it has been rock solid for years for me.

In the past I've used Longhorn, Rook, OpenEBS and others but really, in Hetzner Cloud just use their volumes. It's much more reliable than those software solutions in my experience and performance is also a lot better.
