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?

I don’t like helm, so I use nix to maintain my fediverse deployments in kubernetes. Typically that'd just autoupdate itself to new releases, but for lemmy specifically I upgrade by hand nowadays since one release some time ago broke my deployment and its schema change was incompatible with the automated rollback.

My setup is a combination of https://github.com/farcaller/nixdockertag (auto-updated docker imagesfor things where I fully own the deployments) and https://github.com/farcaller/nixhelm (for helm charts that I either consume verbatim PR have local patches on). Both just auto update nightly thanks to github.
