The Hessen Data Protection officer for the state gov't level wants all gov't agencies to shutdown their Facebook pages.
Response? Virtually all of the state/municipal agencies have 'declined'. The response goes along the line that this is how local governments can pump their announcements out.
At the end of 2022....around 44-million Facebook accounts existed across Germany. I can only speculate that most Germans will browse or check their account at least once a week. There's no factual data on this that anyone can cite.
The Data Protection officer may have a point, but you'd have to ask how important or critical information gets out in a city or village these days, and the best answer is Facebook.
