what you show there should cost like 300/month to run. Its very transparent pricing, its just bad that the tutorial doesn't mention that.

You do realize what you setup in that tutorial right? A kubernetes cluster with 11 full scale microservices that are dimensioned so they can serve the average medium size business. For only a hobby this is huuuuuuugely overdimensioned.

If you were to do the same on azure, it would cost more. If you are comparing it to a cheap linux box, what the hell are you using kubernetes clusters for then?

Sure, buyer beware but is it reasonable that a clearly marked demo project is set up with services to that level of resourcing?

Nobody is going to take a demo like that and start running a business off it tomorrow.
