Your chart shows installed capacity, which is different from total power output. For gas plants in particular, since they are used as peaker plants with low capacity factors. In 2021 only 12% of the natural gas consumed in Germany was turned into electricity. In 2011 it was 14%.

Ok, no problem. If you don't want to see it, you don't see it.

Congrats on Germany for their excellent energy management and master strategic decision to get rid of their nuclear plants. Absolute legend.
