Am I the only one completely uninspired by the use of Kubernetes in a homeprod context? I could see reaching for it if I were already familiar with it, but without that it seems like it's bringing in a whole bunch of new unknown unknown failure modes and debugging complexity, simply to compensate for possible hardware failures. I'd rather just be aware of my overall systems' dependency graph, fix the hardware problems, and if I really want a backup server then be content with failover times on the order of tens of minutes - thinking about redundancy in terms of "there is a problem but it is being automatically fixed for me" rather than "complete availability all the time".

Same could be said about gardening, or painting. People like hobby projects

Yes but why not just docker?

Sure, and a home server / home automation is definitely a hobby. I've just had bad outcomes from overcomplexifying things to make them "more reliable", such that when they do fall over they've fallen over hard and don't necessary get up again without much more of a project. Which is bad for things you've come to rely upon, despite them being in the realm of a hobby.
