Test your Ad Blocking
Yeah, it's nice to just have and forget about, it's pretty easy though, just gotta ssh into it and do: pihole -up to update the core/ftl/web interface. Updating the lists etc you can do in the interface at http://pi.hole then just log in and I think it's under "tools" to update gravity. I use a huge list on mine (as well as some smaller ones) from: https://github.com/thomasbnt/raspihostblock I also have mine set up with "unbound" for recursive dns which is easy to find guides on, all on a pi zero. It only uses up 40-50% "load" and 20% of the memory so I also run a twitter bot from the same pi zero! Amazing what £4 and a few guides can get you.

Would it make sense to run pihole in a kubernetes cluster with multiple instances?
I run multiple blocky instances in a kubernetes cluster. I don't know if it makes sense ... but I'm running kubernetes cluster at home, so making sense is relative ;p

I have progressively been upgrading my small apartment lab over the last week
The PI is running a DNS proxy (https://github.com/0xERR0R/blocky) and not much else at the moment.

Give me your advice re. DNS, naming, nginx reverse proxy etc
I switched from pihole to https://github.com/0xERR0R/blocky for internal DNS, and I found it to be a lot easier to use compared to pihole. Setting up DNS entries was as easy as typing a single line in their config.yml, and restarting the service.

Anti-Affinity across namespaces and Deployments. Does it work?
You could try using blocky instead of pihole. It's stateless and much more friendly to run.

Issue deploying Pihole on kubernetes
Any specific feature you need from pihole that Blocky doesn't have? Blocky is a much nicer tool for AdBlocking especially if deployed in k8s because it's stateless and configured via a single config file. Plus it's written in Go!

Best option for homelab ad blocking...POLL
There is also blocky. I like it because it is light, declarative, stateless, can use redis as cache and has prometheus integration. This plays really nicely with my setup.
