S3 storage is simpler than running scp -r to a remote node, because you can copy files to S3 in a massively parallel way and scp is generally sequential. It’s very easy to protect the API too, as it’s just HTTP (and at it, it’s also significantly faster than WebDAV).
Clearly I mean Garage in here when I write “S3.” It is significantly easier and faster to run hugo deploy and let it talk to Garage, then to figure out where on a remote node the nginx k8s pod has its data PV mounted and scp files into it. Yes, I could automate that. Yes, I could pin the blog’s pod to a single node. Yes, I could use a stable host path for that and use rsync, and I could skip the whole kubernetes insanity for a static html blog.
But I somewhat enjoy poking the tech and yes, using Garage makes deploys faster and it provides me a stable well-known API endpoint for both data transfers and for serving the content, with very little maintenance required to make it work.
I don’t follow. S3 is an AWS service that these tools emulate locally by providing the same API. But I’m happy to accept that there’s just some misunderstanding 😃
In the context of my comments here, any mention of “S3” means “S3-compatible” in the way that’s implemented by Garage. I hope that clarifies it for you.

S3 goes beyond the scope you describe. You disqualify yourself with such statements

Thank you
Nobody should be using SCP, use rsync.
