Interesting approach! It might be of interest as another alternative to use something like k3s.io/ as a lightweight method of setting up a kubernetes cluster - supposedly works great on a few raspberry pis on a home network!

K3s is definitely an option, however I’m using K8s mainly for learning, and it’s nice that my config can be converted for use in a public cloud very easily.

Also, running on Pi’s can be a pain unless everything you want to run has an ARM container, or you build your own.
