Seems like a predictable sounding nationalist slogan that also aligns well with their party name, until you realise it’s actually a serendipitous pun on the Nazi slogan “alles für Deutschland”, a phrase which is banned in Germany. The pronunciation of the two phrases in German is virtually identical. There’s dog whistles, and then there’s foghorns.


I use quadlets instead - it’s part of podman and lets you manage containers as systemd services. Supports automatic image updates and gives you all the benefits of systemd service management. There’s a tool out there that will convert a docker compose config into quadlet unit files giving you a quick start, but I just write them by hand.
