    Ultimately I kept having weird problems knock the whole network offline with it in K3s, so yeah, I'm with you on that. Dedicated VM, or maybe I'll get an actual Pi for it.

    I replied to your earlier post, it sounds like you might have run in to a similar problem where the service routing iptables rules were inadvertently commandeering your DNS traffic and routing it to a PiHole container that wasn't running.

    I ended up giving on PiHole in K8s, I'm curious about this. In my case I tried to isolate the worker nodes by having them get their DNS from the router whereas all my other devices got their DNS from the PiHole, to prevent a circular dependency of DNS to get DNS, but I hit a snag. The Linux distributions I was using were using systemd-resolved for DNS, which listens on 127.0.0.53:53, however the network fabric K3s uses by default (Flannel) configured iptables in such a way as to consume all port 53 traffic. So basically, the PiHole service interrupted my normal OS DNS resolution. I don't remember the exact details, it's been a few months, but I had to finagle with some iptables rule edits after K3s/Flannel came up to make it not do that, but I hadn't gotten around to persisting those changes, and after a power outage caused everything to deadlock and leave me with effectively no internet until I manually untangled it, I sort of rage-quit PiHole in K8s.

    It’s the right call, as much as it sucks, I’m sure the end result is that you get ousted and Reddit forces the doors open again. Replacing all the dedicated moderations with conscripts is sure to kill the content quality. I’m glad you and the team are prepared for the inevitable though.
