I gotta say from dev perspective it is very convenient solution. But I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that runs anything less complex than "a few services in a database". The tens of minutes you save in writing deploy scrips will be replaced by hours of figuring out how to do it k8s way. From ops perspective let's say I ran it from scratch (as in "writing systemd units to run k8s daemons and setting up CA to feed them", because back then there was not that much reliable automation around deploying it) and the complexity tax is insane. Yeah you can install some automation doing that but if it ever breaks (and I've seen some breaking) good fucking luck, non-veteran will have better chance with reinstalling it from scratch.
