(Not OP) I'm running a single node kubernetes cluster because it provides much needed isolation between services as well as, and that's the biggest part, a aingle and simple way to have everything in one place.
I can duplicate a service I'm running 1:1 with a new version for testing in 2 minutes, I can tear it down in 2 seconds. I can roll back changes in one command, I can wipe the server and reinstall everything from scratch in 25 minutes.
The environment is completely reproducible, and I can with a single command see every config that applies to a service.
All the usual deployment trouble is gone, no more weird setups and config situations. All the weirdness is nicely encapsulated.

This. Debugging k8s issues can be tricky, but you do get the above-mentioned benefits and in my opinion can make small teams very productive. It's also a great skill to have.
