This is an old one for many countries…but I fear a housing crisis in Germany.

Right now it’s not as prevalent as in the us for example but there are no steps taken to prevent it becoming a major social issue.

• Construction industry suffers from high prices and a lack of workforce
• The only housing that is being worked on are luxury properties
• Infrastructure development in rural areas where housing is still affordable is not progressing
• Regulations and hurdles for new buildings are more difficult and complex than anywhere else
• Real estate ownership is often only possible through inheritance/generational wealth, as income is extremely highly taxed

Knowing that up and downvotes are public (if not on the user profile through the API, so any crawler/3rd party app has access afaik) I avoid voting at all. I think it’s bad design and really hinders my engagement with posts.

If you don’t mind buying another tool - there are unscrewing tools, which you apply like a screwdriver and hit it with a hammer. They form a new cross-slot profile in the screw head and at the same time give a rotary impulse to loosen the screw.

Anyone know what they are called?

Edit:

• Screw extractor
• Hand impact driver

How exactly does federation on Nextcloud work? I use a hosted Nextcloud instance but it’s just an OneDrive alternative for me.
