I remember back in the 90s Heise's CT magazine used to have really good articles (only in German). The prose is very heavily German with relatively few English words.
Looks like they're still around today.

In my experience, Germans are less hung up about borrowing English words as-is, probably because they're both Germanic languages.
Speakers of Romance languages (French for instance) are more hesitant. The French generally insist on localizing borrowed terms -- l'ordinateur (computer), logiciel (software), etc. And these are actually used in real life.
