I was looking for a country to escape to from mine (EU member ruled by a fascist-in-all-but-its-name government). Sadly, this means I'll have to cross out the UK from the list of potential countries to immigrate to. Since I only really speak English (my German has rusted badly), this leaves only Ireland (but it rains there all the time) and Canada (which is very far).

Germany wouldn't have been a smart move, but Austria might be - still a relatively sane, neutral state when it comes to human rights - admittedly surrounded by insanity. Your German will definitely improve.

Ireland? Human Rights > rain. Go for it, mate.

> neutral state when it comes to human rights

Neutrality against oppression is de facto supporting oppression. Having mainstream political parties directly funded by fucking Russia is also hardly conducive to human rights.

Inshallah Scotland will get serious about seceding in the near future.
Come to Ireland! The weather is bad, but not that bad on the east coast, and there are loads of tech jobs
Malta is warm and English speaking.
Ireland is a pretty good option although Dublin property prices are mad.
Denmark, you can get by without Danish in the Copenhagen tech sector.
