You can check where you are allowed to consume in public on this website (click the button saying “Verstanden, zeig mir die Karte!”, you are agreeing to a no warranty disclaimer): https://bubatzkarte.de

The regulations don’t apply to private spaces and only when in sight of the protected locality in the centre of the red circles.

And there are other regulations, so many other regulations…

But hey, I can at least legally consume in the privacy of my own home now, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

      The outdoors ban only applies “within sight of or less than 100m away from” places where children might gather, like schools, playgrounds, and so forth, with the idea being preventing them from suffering passive consumption. Which I wouldn’t have any problem with if it were applied equally to tobacco and other inhalants as well by the way, but it isn’t. Plus as you might see on the image (if I didn’t fuck up my resolution too bad) this means that virtually more than half of down-town Berlin is off limits if you want to be on the safe side.

      The law says “consumption of cannabis” by the way, so yeah, technically edibles are out too…

        Isn’t it “within sight of and less then 100m”? Which makes bubatzkarte more of a worst case scenario

          Yeah I worded that badly. It’s allowed if you are in the line of sight of a protected locality but more than 100m away. The law specifically states line of sight means less than 100m.

      can’t relate. live in oregon, prerolls of decent quality can be had for $2.50 or less, and full ounces of flower can be had for under $100 pretty regularly. also it’s all lab tested and given a label with THC/CBD levels so you know what you’re getting

      i mean yeah the big business oligopoly is absolutely a problem, but legal weed has actually just led to so fucking much being grown in professionally controlled environments that the price has fallen through the floor even after taxes and the quality has never been better.
