This is why people should just run a small managed k8s cluster on GCP. This has worked super well for us. https://www.vmii.org/blog/2023/03/12/kubernetes/

I tried using kubernetes a while back for hosting a side project on a raspberry pi. I guess technically I was running microk8s on the pi and had to install kubectl locally to interact with it.

I actually like some of the concepts, like pods and ingress, but one thing I noticed that I didn't like, as far as I remember, was that there's not really a good way in kubernetes to make your YAML more dynamic. Apparently you're supposed to use these other things like Helm Charts, which isn't even part of kubernetes?

Yes, the post I linked describes how to do that. It took time to learn. Nowadays I’d just do it with GPT!
