  • Absolutely. Many people have never put thought into either and most do not intend to start now. To break that cycle longterm school curriculums would have to be improved to be more inclusive and for some reason we cannot have that either.

    (Among other veritable measures, this is just the first that came to mind, as everything my school taught about homophobia/racism is that “No, it is bad” - no explanation, no highlighting why courage to stand up against it is important or highlighting lives of minorities which had an positive impact on the world [e.g. Turing]. History lessons in Germany focusses a lot on the damages done during WWII and yet barely anyone knows here that it wasnt just jews that were killed in concentration camps, and even less people know that the homosexuals were not freed after WWII came to an end. Even less people know about magnus Hirschfeld and his revolutionary work at that time. There is such a focus on the topic WWII and yet the schools fail to create a whole before/after picture of it - it honestly is a travesty.)

    I really hate that “We are not as bad as X” mentality. That should not be the baseline. We have hundreds of countries worldwide, we can see what works for the people and what does not. We could look at every topic, be it equality, education, infrastructure, local governments or whatever and look for the ‘best’ country and then look what we can copy to make things better here. But no, that would be to easy and scientific and what about my profits/religion/bigotry.


  • Hi, German here (even born in Dessau, the city mentioned in the article).

    Personally I doubt that the youth thinks their parents/grandparents had it easier. I mean my parents grew up in Eastern Germany and while some things were better a lot of other things were way worse. My grandparents are the generation which rebuild a destroyed nation.

    One of the key problems in Eastern Germany is they got screwed over and over again (e.g. by the red army, then by the sovjiet regime and then by the German reunification). Each time they had to rebuild with less ressources than before. That means like 90% of industry in Eastern German was destroyed.

    So growing up here the goal for many, including me, was to leave. There are not many good jobs there and Western Germany pays better for the same jobs. None of my friends stayed in Dessau. And that is a phenomenon going on since the reunification - Dessaus inhabitants are notably older on average. I still live in Eastern Germany, in a bigger city though - and I work remote for a company in “Western Germany” as it pays roughly 20.000 € more than equal positions locally.

    So a lot of the people who stay, stay because they can’t leave. And thus social circles shrink and diversity gets erradicated - no LGBTQ* person or person of color will want to stay as there is nothing for them. So now you have a bunch of young pissed people with no voice against them. Perfect breeding ground for Nazi ideology. And then they get older and angrier and get kids themselves and “suddenly” you have a nazi youth.

    And the politicians do not help. At. All. This is a problem 75+ years in the making but it still gets ignored. There is no perspective for a lot of small German towns.






  • Absolutely, it is not necessary if the proxy can reach the service in other ways (e.g. a shared network). Some non-http services don’t like to be proxied though. Some constellations where the proxy is not on the same host as the containers may also make it necessary. My answer was based on the possibility to not have the same inside/outside port, not necessarily the need though😉




  • Unless I am missing some obvious setting: Restricted Kubernetes doesnt work like that. You have to run the container with a non-root UID (usually something upwards of a million). Non-root users however can’t reserve ports below 1025. Nextcloud builds on the default php-apache image which comes with the default apache ports.conf (Listen 80).

    So now this has to be overwritten either by making a custom build (which may require creating a custom build pipeline) or by mounting a new config file (e.g. via ConfigMap) else it wont start. Both are an additional update risk which now has to be documented and checked before updating in addition to changes from the normal nextcloud changelog.

    Similiar issues probably appear with rootless docker/podman unless you add extra capabilities, which is not possible in restricted kubernetes settings.
