It sure is nice living in a sane country where I don't have to even think about this "tipping" bullshit every time I go to a restaurant or cafe or anywhere else.
I went to a banh mi place in Berlin. The proprietor put my card in the reader and then I saw him click thru the tip screen before he handed it to me. Much appreciated!

5-10 years ago I also lived in such a country, and it was very nice. Now, not so much (despite not having moved). More and more places are adding the tipping menu to the card reader, making you jump through hoops to not tip. In another 5-10 years I wouldn't be surprised if tipping isn't almost ubiquitous.

It's sneaking in. Resist and complain every time you see it
I haven't seen it anywhere except one cafe in Shimokitazawa that has a tips jar on the counter.
