Self-Hosting DNS
Want to throw in blocky (https://github.com/0xERR0R/blocky). Supports modern protocols and easy to configure in one file. Migrated to this from pi-hole and never looked back.

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!
