It looks like a German username. I’m Dutch: „It’s quite common to quote like this.”
It’s only really for citations, not ‘scare quotes’.
Their closing quotes look inverted though.

As others already said, the French actually use the guillemets with thin spaces but the Swiss use them without.
But the outward pointing of the guillemets looks really odd to me. I like that the inward pointing guillemets basically scream "look at me, I'm a quoted part!".
I didn't know there was “ AND ”. I hate those fancy/smart quotes. They are not internationally understood and confuse computers and people alike. Just like I wish we would all just speak English, I wish we would all just use """".
