I agree that more would be better. The position is grant-funded and the grant has strict rules on funding limits.

Someone might join if they are desperate enough and hop at the next better opportunity, that's what I would do. Aren't you worried this will be a waste of time?

Anybody surprised that the tech sector in Germany is in the state it's in?

Jobmarket in Germany is currently crashed; most people would be happy to get an offer for "only" 60k

Definitely not true for full stack developers with more than 1-2 YOE

If you lose your job right now, expect a minimum cut of 20-30%

Nobody forces you to work there
