We use “Sie” for adult people we don’t know and at work for people like the boss etc. Online we only use “Du”, except in formal emails. But there’s a lot of exceptions to these rules. I try to use “Du” wherever I can. When younger people call me “Sie” I immediately offer them the “Du”.
How open is “Sie” still used on a day-to-day basis? Like do people use “Sie” for their boss?
