Queries all the way down.
Building data-centric apps with a reactive relational database.
We’re exploring a new way to manage data in apps by storing all app state—including the state of the UI—in a single reactive database. Instead of imperatively fetching data from the database, the user writes reactive queries that update with fresh results whenever their dependencies change.

So LXC containers on Ubuntu 22.04 cannot connect to TEH Intarwebs because a rule in a new(?) tool called nft drops all the packets by default…? 🤷
When did this happen? It must have worked before because there are a bunch of containers with installed packages retrieved from some server out there. Strange.
Anyway, the following command fixes the connection issue – not sure this has undesired side-effects, but maybe this should work out of the box so I don’t have to even think about doing something like this 🙄
$ sudo nft add 'chain ip filter FORWARD { policy accept; }'
(Via discuss.linuxcontainers.org.)
Update: There is another way to make this work, it actually is Docker meddling with the iptables:
$ sudo iptables -I DOCKER-USER -i lxdbr0 -j ACCEPT
$ sudo iptables -I DOCKER-USER -o lxdbr0 -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
