As a German with an expat partner, I'd say this depends very much. If you're working for consumer facing startups - sure. There's tons of those in Berlin and plenty in the other big cities (Germany is quite decentral). But if you want to settle a bit on the outskirts of even the big cities, it is a lot easier to understand at least some. I'd say 50% of the people we randomly interact with can hold a conversation in English.

And then there's work: There's a lot of good paying and rewarding tech jobs here that would seem foreign to SV types, in very specific domains or more traditional B2B. Getting a job at those places without speaking German is surely possible for a programmer, just a minor handicap maybe. But for other professions, it can be downright impossible.

there is no non english speaking country in the world where you could expect that to be easier.

You are missing the point. Are other countrkes expecting professionals to move and help them out?

stay here for a year. then go visit your home country india and then read again what you write here. won't have aged well. almost everybody coming to germany complains about all sorts of stuff. after about a year they can't leave anymore.

Not sure why you think I am from India. We are not comparing countries here. We are talking of absoluyes. If German quality is about being better than India, then ok, best of luck

no idea what "german quality" or "better" is supposed to mean.
