Why would you need a load-balancer if you only have a single machine?

Because kubernetes says so? Can you run it without a load balancer?

You can use Nodeport instead of loadbalancer. Or use metallb if you insist to have LB so that it’s more closer to real production environments.

“Real production” smh. This is why docs make baremetal second class citizens, people assume something has to be a certain way for it to be “real.”
