In Switzerland, we use a lot of German and Switzerland born products, and they mostly suck.

I'm not saying there are no good products. Hetzner Cloud come into my mind for example. It's executed really well.

I'm saying that the number of good software offerings is too low, to have a significant impact on the country's economy.

One of the advantages Germany had though, was a somewhat good and accessible higher education system in regards of computer science.

Now, with software development becoming a commodity, this advantage vanishes.
