I _had_ to learn k3s specifically when I got to my current job. The first month was literally a tiny bit of onboarding, and then the person that was then-currently managing the cluster and Linux infra...being unceremonosly (<- how do you type that actually? xD) fired - and me being told to take over their duties... in full.

So, k8s.io docs, cover to cover it was. XD Could say that the real apprenticeship I am having is as a Kubernetes admin, if anything, because thats the only new stuff I learn. o.o

With L4 in the cloud, you probably mean Layer 4...so, a load balancer? I just have a VPS for 8 bucks that reverse-proxies home through a Headscale VPN. How exactly did you configure your l4 to "phone home"? o.o Wireguard or something?

Yes, layer 4. Nginx as a stream proxy pointing to home directly. No vpn. The only purpose is to hide my IP address. I then configure my firewalls to listen explicitly for the IP addresses of the L4 proxies.

My cloud provider when down last weekend for like 14 hours so I decided to configure another L4 in the US-west datacenter. So now I have us-east and us-west. I then also decided to add another L7 proxy and use the L4s to distribute connections across the two at home.
