Have you been able to load balance with multiple containers? Im not really familiar with k8s
load balancing is automatic between pods thanks to Services: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/
I saw that Lemmy container has scheduled jobs. How did you handled that? IDK I’m not sure about is Lemmy really “stateless”.

Right, that's a good point.
So far it's working quite well, however for a micro-sized instance it's no surprise. Worst case scenario I can do the same thing as the admins of lemmy.world did: create a dedicated scheduling pod using the same docker image as the normal ones, but exclude it from the Service's target, so it won't receive any incoming traffic.
The rest of the pods can then be dedicated to serve traffic with their scheduling functionality disabled.
Do they have a write up on their setup?
