Why someone keeps chasing the latest gadgets when the old ones work just fine is beyond me.

Nobody is waiting every year for the brand new line of washing machines. Why is there a need to swap phones this frequently?

Yes, those are all great uses of it. But could all still be achieved with docker containers running on some machines at home, right?

Have you ever had a situation where features provided by kubernetes (like replicas, load balancers, etc) came in handy?

I'm not criticizing, I'm genuinely curious if there's a use-case for kubernetes for personal self-hosting (besides learning).

Seems a bit overkill for a personal use selfhosting set-up.

Personally, I don't need anything that requires multiple replicas and loadbalencers.

Do people who have homelabs actually need them? Or is it just for learning?
