Would like to add a little context to this for anyone who isn't familiar-
For all the intelligence and engineering prowess of Germans, their Internet infrastructure is severely lacking. Most places I'm aware of have poor connections to begin with but also still meter every kilobyte that you download, so Germans are really far more conscious of payload sizes than most Westerners are, where internet service is just a flat fee.
It's really strange when so-called "second-world" countries like Bulgaria and Romania have far better Internet than Germany
