Relevant point: Driving in the middle lane in Germany is allowed as long as there’s at least infrequent slower traffic on the right lane. There’s been a supreme court ruling on this.
I’m not German but the rule I always use there and in Czechia where I live is to vacate the left lane any time you can do it for a while or if there’s someone behind you.
It used to be the law that you should move to the right whenever possible. That restriction was eased to say that if there’s at least some traffic every once in a while on the right lane that you don’t have to move over, if you are on a 3-lane highway.
The reason for that easing was to reduce the danger that is created by frequent unnecessary lane changes.
