German public transportation is okay. The personal experience may not be great on a given day, but objectively the quality depends on what you compare it to. In most EU countries, public transport is *real shit*, but nobody complains about it, not because it works very well, but simply because there is nothing to complain about. Note that Germany is one of the few EU countries where you can use public transport *only* to get from one completely random place to another in a predictable amount of time. Yes, locals are constantly complaining about train delays, supposedly it used to be way better in the good old days, but to me (an outside observer) it works just fine, and when you add the price into the equation (Deutschlandticket for example) it's just wonderful. And for those who are still in doubt, I dare you to take a trip from any village say in Spain or Italy to another one just 50km away.
