I wanted to set up a kubernetes cluster and bought 2k worth of hardware, which ended up wasting away in a box for 3 freaking years. I would occasionally get it out on a free weekend, waste 10 hours and then give up cause I had more fun things to do on a weekend. Every time I attacked the project, I had to start from scratch because of updates and me forgetting everything by then. Months passed, then years.
Eventually I abandoned the idea of kubernetes and just set it up a single node with dokploy and the next time I felt like it I added another node in swarm mode and so on.

Holy shit, sorry to hear. Hope you found some kind of use for all that hardware.

Lol, no worries. Glad to hear it didn’t all go to waste.
