This is my DNS setup. Feel free to ask questions!
I use a dockerised version of this project as the generator: https://github.com/ReconInfoSec/web-traffic-generator - I import the top 1 million sites: https://gist.github.com/chilts/7229605

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!

What are some of your favorite self-hosted programs written in golang or rust?

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.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing web-traffic-generator and blocky you can also consider the following projects:
homelab - My Homelab setup
Pi-hole - A black hole for Internet advertisements
AdGuardHome - Network-wide ads & trackers blocking DNS server
CoreDNS - CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins
pihole-updatelists - Update Pi-hole's lists from remote sources easily
cloudflared - Cloudflare Tunnel client (formerly Argo Tunnel)
bypass-paywalls-chrome - Bypass Paywalls web browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.
pihole-regex - Custom regex filter list for use with Pi-hole.
pornaway - PornAway: Block adult sites
Maza ad blocking - Local ad blocker. Like Pi-hole but local and using your operating system.
nsupdate.info - Dynamic DNS service
