Been thinking about fully self hosting my small stuff for a bit but a mini managed k8s ($10) is just so convenient. I build a new docker image for some thing, add a manifest file to my k8s repo and apply it - my “cluster” spins up a new pod, I can easily hook it up to tailscale or Cloudflare warp to make it accessible, and it’s available Been using this approach for the past years and if something gets bigger, I move the container to fly or a different k8s cluster in a couple hours max On my bigger k8s I can then easily add more nodes or scale up pods depending on need, and scale them back down when idle. Still the main issue with any setup I see is the database. No matter what I use I’d either have a managed Postgres somewhere, or something like litestream, and if that’s not in the same data center it’s gonna add latency sadly
