Instead of making a fuss, have you considered taking another look at the video page? It includes a summary that helps show why those technical facts are actually relevant in the context of German society, and hints at how those things came to happen. I would normally not bother with a comment, but this time I'm genuinely curious as to how someone might have missed scrolling down to see the summary.
(edit: the fussy bit, where the poster complains about downvotes, has been edited out. I'm leaving my comment the way it is.)

Pretty simple. On my laptop the video fits 100% in the browser tab and there is no indication that there is more content under it. There is no text except the video title in the portion that I see when the page loads. And the link is marked [video] on HN.
So I simply closed it.
That's fair, appreciate it. I guess some folks were just unlucky.

But it's not nice (socially normal?) to post "tl;dw" either.
It's okay, we disagreed on something. I'll agree to learn something from it if you do. Happy new year.
It's not nice, and in fact really quite rude, to complain about people trying to make something more accessible. You don't have to be nice and help, but complaining about it is definitely not nice.
