Not OP and couldn't see myself moving towards Libertarianism, but I can kinda see where OP is coming from. Germany does have a huge amount of regulations for almost everything. A lot of projects take far too long because there are so so many rules and laws to be considered. People working in administration got so used to that, that they tend to avoid responsibilities and hide behind rules and regulations (saying this as someone working in administration, trying to establish better digital processes, which tends to be quite frustrating). On an individual level, everything (except the Autobahn without its speed limit) is always made, so even the biggest idiot can't hurt himself. Sometimes that ruins the fun for everyone else...

ASML. Dutch company and the one and only supplier of EUVL machines, requiered by TSMC to make their most advanced chips.
I can recommend Asphalte from France. https://www.asphalte.com/ Gotta bring some patience when ordering though. They collect orders and only produce those with a small overhead to cover returns, to avoid overproduction. Their style focuses on timeless stuff in good quality as to avoid trends. You can't always order all their products, but some 'eternals' are always available to order (still have to wait until the next production cycle though). Now would be a good time to order summer clothing. My personal favorite are their sneakers as they look good and are very comfy and sturdy.
A lot of older people in Germany got their first email address with gmx or web.de (same servers, just different domains), so both of these platforms users are often targeted by spammers and scammers because of a possibly higher success rate. My FIL just last week almost lost control of his gmx and associated accounts. Though that was probably due to using the same password for multiple services, it is just more likely to happen with gmx than say posteo due to probabilities.
Spam also comes from the providers themselves, trying to push subscriptions to their premium services. If you want to access your inbox via browser and have an adblocker enabled you are forced to watch an ad.
If it works for you and if you use a separate password for gmx (or better yet, a password manager) and a different client, all good. I just think there are better options for people who are looking for alternatives right now.
Which belongs to 1&1, which belongs to United Internet, which belongs to Ralph Dommermuth, who is one of the 300 richest people in the world. Also GMX often is the target of spam and phishing. And if you want to access the web login you have to go through a shitty news page. Still better than gmail, but there are far superior alternatives. Sincerely, a former web.de user (which is the same shit with a different name).
Made in Prague. Got one when I visited a few years back. I really like the aesthetic and the webbing on the outside is super useful to pack extra stuff. Quality is also top notch, no signs of wear after quite heavy use yet.
Pinqponq is another brand of the same company: https://www.pinqponq.com/
Different company but also from Cologne, Germany: https://www.airpaq.de/ They turn old airbags into backpacks.
Regelmäßig, oder? Also Zähne, Kinn, bisschen Botox hier und da.

Starting to talk in moderate terms about how immigration might be far slower and more discriminating is the only thing that will rob the far right extreme parties of their saviour narrative.
That is what the CDU is doing. Have you taken a look at their program for the upcoming election? It is exactly what they want to do. The discourse has shifted for quite a while now. We are long past the point where you get called a Nazi for asking for slower immigration.
Does that change anything about the high number of people voting AfD? No. Because they want even simpler answers. They want to hear that brown people are the sole reason for most of their problems because it is always easier to blame one singular group/person/ethnicity, than to understand and change the systemic problems we all face in the times to come. I mean I get it. It's scary to think about climate change, about unchecked capitalistic exploitation, about Russia, about China. And it is far easier to just blame someone for every hardship one faces. But it's also fucking stupid.
Trying to pin the success of AfD on missing talk about immigration in other parties is just wrong at this point. It's one of two major topics in the upcoming election. I'd seriously suggest to update your info. Your arguments might have had a point around 2015-2020, but those days are over.
Oh and also discrimination based on religion should and will never happen as long as democracy in Germany has any life left, as that would go against Article 3 of our constitution. That's in there for a reason I don't think I have to repeat here.

Does it work? I also have one and it was super easy to connect it to my router and use it. My wife likes to call me on it when my phone is on silent, hard to miss that ring haha.
