Fediverse Apps on Kubernetes? (lemmy.cloudhub.social)

I am running a Kubernetes cluster for this domain, and I'm looking at more services to run (right now I have Mastodon and Lemmy).

I was considering WriteFreely and PixelFed, but they don't seem to have an easy solution for running on Kubernetes (WriteFreely doesn't even have a production-ready docker image).

Is anyone else running federated services in their lab? Do you run any of them on Kubernetes?

If they’re containerized they’ll run in a Kubernetes cluster, I’m sure you know this. Why not build the K8s infrastructure you need to get them functional? Or maybe Helm charts if you’re up for it.

Oh, I know I could get them to run with enough work. I just don't have that much time to spend on initial implementation and upkeep of the charts.

I'm using FluxCD, which I believe can do deployments of plain Kubernetes manifests, but that still requires a decent amount of overhead to keep up to date.

Well k8s is a poor choice of platform for you :D
