More people vote under pr thus increasing interest in democracy. People tend to vote more when their votes actually count for the smaller parties / independents.
To your point on Germany, there’s much more involved in having a robust democracy than simply an electoral system. The culture of the society is one.
But you’re from lemmy.ml, so you’re just trying to sabotage democracy any chance you can get.
(oh wow, no I was asking an honest question and ml was the instance first offered to me, jesus)
In Germany, I’m seeing lots of people vote tactfully to keep the AfD out which seems to be a new trend, so I’m not sure how robust PR is in the long run there. Still better than FPTP, of course.
