The two glass liter bottles of fresh milk min my fridge beg to differ - though they are proudly branded “Frankenmilch”… which just means that it’s produced in Franken (Franconia), the region I live in.

Sure, but try finding that in Berlin. I think the point here is that availability has dropped for many/most people.

Good lord, this is true dystopia. I drink fresh milk every damn day.

It's also not true at all. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29548136 for what the original complaint is probably about.

It is true. It’s very hard to find now, and it was not hard to find in the past.

> Not even refrigerated.

That was the point where you lost me. Even ALDI doesn't just have non-refrigerated milk.

I find the shift annoying too, but it's not as bad as that.

The Aldi next to me only had room temp last time I looked. I’m going in the morning, maybe I’m wrong! I’ll look and report back.
