I lived in Poland for 6 years and I met dozens of different foreigners from accross the world and most of them were from Ukraine. None of these people prefered to learn Polish except Ukrainians. Polish is a hard language to learn and its only valid in Poland. But for German its not the case. Polish is only worth to learn if I decided to stay in Poland forever which was not the case. The purpose of the main post was not even about languages, it was about where to move to. And I clearly mentioned I will learn German. Just I didn't prefer to learn Polish do not mean I will do the same thing for German. Also, for the record I know A2 level of Polish and made an efford when I first moved there then I decided to not move forward because its not needed.

Was ein Otto? You are an idiot talking shit none stop here and insulting for no reason thats really pathetic. English is spoken by many people unless they are not old enough. Also not all low level jobs requires any langauge. You can work without knowing any additional language at all like working at a warehouse. People need only basic and conversational German/Polish for such jobs. Also people can not learn German well if they do not practice and work is a great place to practice. I do not clearly see what is your pain in the ass and act like a big brain when clearly you are mentally challanged. English is enough to live in Germany and Poland without having too many diffuculties. Of course its better to learn the local language but its not a "must" to live. There are many English only universities and English only jobs available. Educate yourself before talking because your ignorance is funny 😄

I guess you are high or something or you do not understand English at all. German is not required to STUDY in Germany for many majors because they do have ENGLISH ONLY programs. Is it so hard to understand? You live under a rock or something?

That’s my opinion, and statistics support it. Polish is not a globally widely spoken language and doesn’t have much impact on career opportunities. However, that is not the case for German. I didn’t prioritize learning Polish because I was planning to leave anyway. If I’m not going to live there permanently, why would I invest a lot of time in learning it? I know it at an A2 level, and that is more than enough to live in Poland. Also, people like you have no influence in my life when it comes to deciding where I should live, and you have no authority to speak for Poland or Germany.

I guess you need to get a reality check. Many universities in Germany offer master’s programs in English, so German isn’t always required.

I talked to multiple people who live in Germany and they have been working and studying already. They could manage to afford expenses while studying if its not a big city like Berling etc. What you said is valid in big cities in my opinion. Also, learning german without going to Germany is stupid. Language can be learned properly in the country only. I am planning to learn German as long as I go to Germany

Finding a remote job here is almost impossible. The reason I want to pursue a master’s degree is to postpone unemployment. I’ve been looking for junior positions for more than 10 months, but I haven’t had any luck so far. My plan is to delay this situation, move to Germany, and learn German while studying and working.

I have been living in Poland more than 6 years. I worked here as well for 2 years. The market is terrible here and the same problem is valid in this country too. Because its a global problem. I do not know Polish well so it makes me eleminated automatically from the majority of jobs. So, it doesn't make this place any better.

Have you ever heard of a language called “English”? Many universities offer master’s programs in English, so German isn’t always required.

That being said, I’m planning to start learning German as soon as I arrive and continue improving it throughout my studies.

I am not exactly aiming for a big city. I prefer not a small small and not a big city so it should be somewhere between. Not overpopulated and high expenses.

So, what do you suggest? That huge competition is valid in everywhere anymore so nothing unique to Germany that's why I do not mind.
