For a less emotional explanation of exit tax see https://www.grantthornton.de/en/insights/exit-tax-topic-hub.

> The purpose of this rule is to tax the increase in value of these shares that came about in Germany but has not yet been realised before they are able to escape the reach of German taxes by the move abroad.

Doesn't sound all that crazy to me.

Also, the proposed analogy to the Berlin wall feels quite pathetic for those that have actually lived behind it.

The location detected seems to be something else every time I open the page. I had US, Canada and UK but am located in neither of these.

Or maybe it's just me because I usually try to go from legalese to something understandable, not the other way around. :D

You had me when you said some of your best thinking happens in the bathroom.

Looks cool. On Android the UI seems to extend below the status bar at the top and below the drawer at the bottom of the screen which creates some overlapping though.

The term "legalese" has a somewhat negative connotation for me. I also wouldn't consider the example given as legalese. It's just more formal and polite than the casual source text. Could still be helpful though.

Not operating a business around it makes it seem a little more trustworthy than say Glassdoor to me personally. Then again, you still rely entirely on whatever people enter.
