Ruby On Rails is well known for not being at the fast end of the spectrum, so it needs lots of machines, and lots of machines gives reason to user Kubernetes.

A NewsDesk application written in something compiled for example golang would be much faster and likely could run on a single server.

The benefit of single server being you don't need kubernetes and can spend that development resource on developing application features.
