Ho vissuto in Germania per i miei primi mesi a Berlino ed è stato così facile per me e i miei amici trovare la strada verso altre stazioni grazie a questa carta. Una volta che ci siamo trasferiti in altre città, mi dà un po’ fastidio che questo non sia comune (se c’è una mappa come questa, di solito è piccola e nascosta dietro i pannelli di vetro nelle stazioni)

I guess I haven’t paid too much attention when visiting other cities, because the difference didn’t register to me.
For what it’s worth, you can access all of those maps offline in many ways, but one convenient way is using the app [Oeffi](https://oeffi.schildbach.de/index.html) (section ‘network maps’).
It is common in Paris.
The type you show here only shows the lines that actually pass through the station you are at, which is useful for counting the number of stops you need to travel, but less useful for planning any journey that involves transfers. If you’re at Zoologischer Garten and you want to get to Bundesplatz, you’ve probably already looked up the journey and know that you need to follow the signs for the U9 bound for Rathaus Steglitz.
These do exist in at least some other cities — Frankfurt, certainly — but other methods are usually more useful: schematics of the entire network, journey planner apps, display screens on the trains, and so on.
German isn’t efficient – that is why
Munich has very similar maps at the entrance of each station. It’s really helpful.
These charts are around in Munich as well. And yes, they’re helpful as you get some orientation, which platform you need to find, what endpoints you need to look for.
We have these in Frankfurt.
I’ve seen this in Dortmund and it was placed in a similar way.
When you can smell a picture. Anyways pretty sure Stuttgart has them. To be honest i sure most cities that have U-Bahn have those kind of charts in or another way.
These are fairly common in my experience in Munich. Less so in FFM (where I live).
Have you ever looked around in any major cities metro/train stations?
This is literally a universal design that is adopted all over the world
