  • Sure, this is true. Look at “MG” - was a British brand then an now it’s Chinese.

    But the Chinese could proudly use there own brands: BYD, Xpeng, Xiaomi. Why do they imitate ours?

    Customers should simply be aware that Opel isn’t a German brand anymore. This has nothing to do with German engineering. Unfortunately. - German brands are sold widely for cheap crap. Other examples: Dual, Grundig, Bose etc.

    We should only name something “Made in EU” when it’s really produced in EU and never sell out our identity to China.

    But that is, what happens.

    I just wanted to mention that too small instances can also be a problem: They’re often not maintained very well. I experienced that the German community on “feddit dot de” was abandoned and I was annoyed about it, so that I was searching for a stable instance. Therefore, I switched to lemmy.world but now I think: meanwhile the German community is stable at feddit.org.

    But I don’t know why I now should move away from lemmy.world. I think the user base has to grow a little bit more. For me there is not really that much content in German, if so, then I would consider changing.
