│ Sometimes, all you need is a mindset shift, a blocker in your mind that holds you back from doing certain things. And for me, I have consumed enough tutorials and posts about Kubernetes, that I need to put to use and create. I have been stuck in the learning cycle, lets push to prod with kubernetes.

This hurts. I know others with this learning style that need to see the full picture before actually doing something with new tech. The way I first got into kubernetes I was looking for the easy route and somehow k8s came up several times as a suggested route Looking for a Heroku replacement, What I found was shocking! </looking-for-a-heroku-replacement/>, So I dove in head first with k3s <https://k3s.io/> and kompose <https://kompose.io/>. What I found was that it was not all that hard once you start to see how the pieces fit together, no amount of reading tutorials would have gotten me there.

│ Does anyone care if you use simple yet fragile bash scripts or heavy weight Kubernetes cluster for just clicking buttons and creating and updating rows in a database? No!

│ You know what, let’s fucking use Kubernetes.

Let’s Gooo. Use what is right for you and stop parroting kubernets is hard, heavy, for big companies, maybe actually try it first.
