Found this nice tui for kubernetes this weekend - https://github.com/janosmiko/lfk

One of the things I like about it is that it has #argocd specific logic - you can use it to alter argo settings and do other things you might otherwise do with the argocd command line tool

Looks pretty neat, especially for #homelab @homelab #k8s users

#sre #devops #k8s #kubernetes #k3s #talos

@unixorn @homelab It reminds me of NeoVim

I'm a k9s user myself, but this is pretty good

@blenderfox @homelab I need to poke at them both a bit more before deciding. I only started using k8s in my homelab relatively recently when I finally took at look at #TalosLinux.

#Talos made all the annoyance of having to maintain the VM k8s is running on go away, and it's forced me to have better habits at home about checking everything into git since I can't just ssh into the VM for maintenance.

@unixorn @blenderfox @homelab My biggest challenge with k8s in a homelab is dealing with flaky hardware. I've had ram go "bad" twice and it corrupted the disk for the control nodes and I lost the "state" of the cluster. I know you can back up k8s configuration, but backups are just so hard and I wish it were really easy 😆 Does Talos make this easier?

@chris @unixorn @blenderfox @homelab I use talos-backup to periodically create encrypted etcd snapshots and upload them to an external S3 bucket. So far, it’s been working great. It’s literally just a CronJob.

I only have a single controlplane node running on a Raspberry Pi 4. It’s been two years, and I’m still waiting for the SD card to fail so I can test the restore procedure, even though I’ve already validated it. :)
