That wouldn’t work anywhere in the world.

Seemed to work fine at many places I visited.

I’m interested to hear how they were operated, if you know? The ones I’ve seen just become nasty and get removed by the council.

When I encountered these they were maintaned by a community or space like houseprojects, collectives or free shops. Some seemed to be accessible all around the clock and some just when the space was open. So its not just a fridge standing around but actual groups/people caring for it.

I dont know if the places were connected to the food-sharing network, but some probably were. Here is a wiki entry about that https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foodsharing.de

Why not?

Don’t get me wrong, it would be great if it did. But, people aren’t going to put labels or clear it out. It would be a well-intentioned, gross health hazard.

Sounds like a standard office fridge.

I think there could be inspections done regularly (every week or month) by the owner of the fridge or by other people (depending on your idea of how the fridge should operate)

The same reason communism and socialism always lead to facism, easy to abuse.

That’s funny, because it literally does work in many places. You might want to refine your idea of how everything works, since you are simply wrong. 🤷
