But then it wouldn't have made the first page

  Never thought of that. But OP maybe liked tinkering with k3s and kilo. But I believe kilo's best use is for cluster to cluster connection. This use case is a bit artificial in my opinion.

  I did not downvote you but, serious question: is there a need for this kind of snark? I understand the point that running a kubernetes cluster just for this would probably be hard to justify. But, if you deploy your services to kubernetes already, then this is a nice guide to do so, isn't it? I find it hard to understand this attitude, especially in a forum dedicated to talk about technology.

    But maybe, like in any social network, there is a bias on what is put in front page. And if you have an interesting project, you might want to add an extra layer of complexity and use Kubernetes in order to gain more visibility.

    It's also a example of a project where you can learn more about a platform. Yes, it could be run outside of k8s, but perhaps the author wanted to add the extra layer of "difficulty".

    Well, making things intentionally difficult sounds really stupid, but you learn a whole lot in the process, and for a side project geared towards gaining knowledge, this seemed perfect :) And in the process of setting this up I figured a new way to debug my deployments for remote k8s clusters, using kilo. Also sidenote, yes I actually do host a couple other things on my cluster including my blog, so I didn't really want to spin up a new instance just for DNS and VPN
