A hosting company referring to the core of their business as "the IT branch" doesn't instil confidence.
- makapuf 8mo agoI understand it as "the branch we're purchasing/hiring from", not the inner part of the company.
- F-W-M 8mo agoI guess it's just a bad translation and means IT sector. German word: "IT-Branche"
- Hetzner_OL 8mo agoHi there, That's actually my bad. I'm a native speaker, but I've lived in Germany too long apparently. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. --Katie
- zeeZ 8mo agoIt's a German hosting company making a translation error from the German "IT-Branche". The wording doesn't appear in the German version, but very well could have at some point in the process.
- jaapz 8mo agoyes, "IT-Branche" means "the IT industry"
- ndom91 8mo agoThats just what we call it in Germany.. It's still a bit of backwater when it comes to some aspects of tech haha
- PurpleRamen 8mo agoSeems poor translation. The German version only speaks about rising costs in various areas, no mention of any IT branch. They probably meant the whole IT market in general, not specifically their own company or some branch of it.
