Lol.

This reminds me of someone who ones was really sad about "german quality", as they intentionally bought a tool box from a german brand. Turned out they, unfortunately, picked the cheapest one "Brüder Mannesmann". Which is basically a german sales front for whatever they can cheaply resell (so basically fancy AliExpress with a CE stamp). Their "rust-free" tools turned orange faster than even chinese bridges could collapse.

Unfortunately this whole price war causes actual german tool manufacturers like Bosch to go down in quality as well, at least for their value kits. Of course the same is true for Japanese' Makita. And with the Internet being infested with bots and paid reviews (i.e. lies) and local shops also being paid to tell you marketing nonsense… it's so god damn hard to find actual quality products.

Is there by any chance some Fedi channel equivalent to r/buyitforlife?

Just buy imported products… Ah, shit.
