For a less emotional explanation of exit tax see https://www.grantthornton.de/en/insights/exit-tax-topic-hub.

> The purpose of this rule is to tax the increase in value of these shares that came about in Germany but has not yet been realised before they are able to escape the reach of German taxes by the move abroad.

Doesn't sound all that crazy to me.

Also, the proposed analogy to the Berlin wall feels quite pathetic for those that have actually lived behind it.

The location detected seems to be something else every time I open the page. I had US, Canada and UK but am located in neither of these.

Or maybe it's just me because I usually try to go from legalese to something understandable, not the other way around. :D

You had me when you said some of your best thinking happens in the bathroom.

Looks cool. On Android the UI seems to extend below the status bar at the top and below the drawer at the bottom of the screen which creates some overlapping though.

The term "legalese" has a somewhat negative connotation for me. I also wouldn't consider the example given as legalese. It's just more formal and polite than the casual source text. Could still be helpful though.

Not operating a business around it makes it seem a little more trustworthy than say Glassdoor to me personally. Then again, you still rely entirely on whatever people enter.

I tried https://knowyourworth.site/job-titles/egineering-manager and it's giving me "Sorry, we had an issue. Please try again."

This isn't exactly a new product idea since there are numerous existing add-ons and other services that offer this functionality. However, I found myself massively disappointed with the available options because either they were charging top dollars for minimal value or appeared super phishy and unsafe to use (how comfortable would you be letting some closed-source add-on run on AliExpress while being logged in?).

So I asked myself, how hard could it possibly be to create an open source alternative that turns my order details pages into PDF invoices? Well turns out not that hard but still a little harder than expected. :D

I released this on addons.mozilla.org about a year ago. A few other people have discovered it since and shared thoughts that already led to enhancements.

Since some people were asking, I recently decided to also make the add-on available for Chrome (https://chrome.google.com/webstonre/detail/aliexpress-invoic...) which turned out to be surprisingly simple.

If anyone else is in this niche, maybe you'll find this helpful and have a few thoughts to share on the functionality.
