Germany is so far behind with wifi coverage, it's insane. Fiber is also rare outside of the hotspots. I volunteered in a refugee center once and an ongoing joke among them was how war-torn Syria had better internet connection than Germany lol

I really don't get it, if we in France did it, why not Germany?

Old farts in charge don't care about it. Merkel has promised full net coverage a couple times but oh well. It's definitely better than it was before, but there are still lots of areas where there is work to be done. As our saying goes: Deutschlands Mühlen mahlen langsam. (Germany's mills grind slowly)
