Least surprised - Turkey. I grew up there, oddly common to have a religious uncle living in Germany.

Most surprised - Russia. Kazakhstan??

Italy's isnt Germany?!

Finns racing for that sweet flat tax of Estonia (but also half the average net salary so hmm).

[–] cro_magnon_gilf@sopuli.xyz 5 points 4 hours ago

You're reading the map backwards lol

The Nordics, Finland, and Estonia are just doing an exchange program.

[–] Allero@lemmy.today 6 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

The only thing better than a Nordic country is another Nordic country

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 4 points 17 hours ago

I thought it was because those nations are basically bickering siblings and enjoy annoying each other.

we're very keen on recycling

i'm seeing three dominant patterns: the aussie funnel, the nordic maelstrom and the franco-swiss oscillator.

[–] ARMADILLOMANIA@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago

Also one megatrend pattern that seem to lead away from Russia.

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Germany really hard-carrying the Franco-Swiss oscillator.

[–] GarboDog@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Germans want to be anywhere but Germany lol

[–] remon@ani.social 9 points 3 hours ago

Every country wants to be anywhere else but that country. It's a map of emigration destinations ...

[–] bold_atlas@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Lol the Swiss want to be French and the French want to be Swiss.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 6 hours ago

I mean this is for the few that want to leave. How likely is it for someone to put "Wants to move to their own country" in a survey?

[–] eah@programming.dev 5 points 21 hours ago

The grass is always greener on the other side.

[–] ooli3@sopuli.xyz 17 points 1 day ago (8 children)

I suppose young french, would like to have better salary... young swiss just want to spend their money on good food, for once

As you can see. The Dutch stay in "dutch-land" :-)

Because Holland is the best. Nobody wants to leave!

[–] Hoimo@ani.social 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

It says Spain, but I won't blame you for reading this confusing map wrong. (Also, no mention of how many people actually go to Spain.)

[–] Clutter@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 minutes ago

I don't understand? I do not see my dutch flag on any other country. So logic tells me we apparently never leave ;-)

Fun little triangle there between Norway, Sweden and Denmark.

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 1 points 19 hours ago
