Looks like “dark mode” implementation attempt which missed setting the background to black.

There was an article a while back on HN about why web designers choose light grey on white background. Basically, it looks fine on their own monitor which has the contrast turned way up

The css is ".prose-invert" and there's a ".prose" that looks better, I wonder if something threw a switch to make it "invert" when it should be ".prose" because you're right, this is unreadable as-is. Interesting read though.

#6> thousands of monitoring checks per minute
That isn’t a lot. You could easily run that from one host. The reason people reach for Kubernetes (and similar) is because they need to scale past that single host dependency.

#7docker-rollout also works well: https://github.com/wowu/docker-rollout
The readme covers connection draining with Traefik which should solve one of the issues the author mentions

100%. And a shared mental model. I love how I can scale up all my services the same way, across clouds.
It's great.

The reason most people reach for Kubernetes is because it's cool. The entire infra the vast majority of Kubernetes users have could run on a single bare metal machine with a second one for redundancy.
To be fair: using Kubernetes anyways builds the skill just in case you become one of the 0.1% who actually need it down the line.

#10> There's a mass delusion in the industry that you need Kubernetes to run a serious production service. You don't. At StatusDude, we serve thousands of monitoring checks per minute, run multi-region workers, and deploy multiple times a day
This is pretty small scale, Kubernetes comes in when you've got a larger workload.
