Hey I'm not arguing that you in particular shouldn't use old tech for fun. Heck serve your emacs written internet website via nc from your Amiga for all I care.
I'm just pointing out that it's easy and sufficiently efficient to run k8s on old computers, which makes running homelabs quite easy and also allows projects such as the OP to really shine. You seem to really enjoy telling me how bad it is that k8s needs 0.05 CPU and 500MB of RAM to run but the thing is it will scale horizontally a lot, and also presents the APIs you'll be expected to know in a devops job in 2026.
