I'm a technical writer in Germany and currently there seem to be about 5 remote job postings in this field (for German software companies). Obviously developers will have more opportunities, but this number is still indicative of how far Germany is behind in remote culture compared to the US. Also generally the remote positions don't seem to be listed as being accessible to all EU citizens, since they are usually looking for someone who speaks German on a native level. So the idea of a supra-national pool of European job postings does not seem to be quite a reality yet, though again it's probably a better situation for developers.

Don't even get me started. The stubbornness on that matter of many business owners in Berlin + the apartment market in Berlin, makes a good script for a shocking documentary.
