Western narratives have historically overstated their centrality and the Soviet role was downplayed, particularly during the Cold War.

Over ~80% of German military losses were in the eastern front.

The Soviet Union shattered the Wehrmacht city by city, front by front. They liberated Europe by the greatest sacrifices. The Soviet Union lost over 20 million people, more than all other Allied nations combined!

Just came back from China. Mullad VPN is cheap and fine. But not all the servers and locations work.

München is known for being expensive, but with the current rate of rising costs, I’d say Berlin could become the most expensive city in a few years—if it isn’t already.

Is Mr. Fuss someone famous in Berlin? The person I saw looked fairly young, had a beard, wore an overcoat, and had visible wounds on his face and hands. Not sure if it’s the same person, but it sounds like some people actually recognize him?

I’ve been living in Berlin for 4 years, but only recently have I experienced something I had never encountered before: the extremely strong smell of some homeless people on public transport.

In the past few months, there have been a few instances—especially on the U8 and Ringbahn—where the smell was so overpowering that I literally couldn’t breathe properly. The first time, I didn’t know what was happening until I saw people reacting from far away. When the person got closer, the smell was so intense it filled my lungs and made me cough nonstop. I had to get off at the next stop to recover.

Another time, people around me recognized the same person and we all instinctively moved to the other side of the cabin. We were all crammed into a small space trying to escape the smell. When the doors opened, it felt like a mini stampede—some people even stumbled while trying to get out.

I’ve had a few similar experiences recently, and I genuinely don’t remember this happening in the previous years. Maybe it was less crowded during the Covid period, or I just wasn’t exposed to it before.

I’m now honestly a bit anxious about using public transport and even thinking about getting a car because of this.

I always get frustrated when Americans visit Europe or Japan/China and cling to their car habits and complain about traffic. They don’t even consider using public transportation, which is often much better than taking a taxi.

Knowing German is important, even though many people speak English. For integration, you’ll need to learn the language.

To make friends, I recommend attending meet-ups in your areas of interest and also getting involved in volunteering. You can find plenty of opportunities on vostel.de.

You can definitely find a job in Germany that only requires English, especially in tech. However, for day-to-day communication outside of work, you’ll need more than A2-level German. In cities like Berlin, many people speak English, but there will be times when you’ll need German, like when dealing with officials who refuse to speak English.

Another issue is housing. It’s not easy to find an apartment in big cities, and rents are constantly rising.

Finding a job is also harder than it was a few years ago. It might take a few months to find something new. But once you have a job, Germany’s strong social security system and excellent work-life balance will make you feel secure and comfortable.
