Lately I’ve been at some finer diners in my country, and the payment terminals now have an option if you want to tip.
I’ve made it a rule never to tip. Even if the service was magnificent.
Out of all the things I don’t want my country adopting from the US, the tipping must be somewhere in the top.
can only speak to Germany, but it definitely is pretty common to tip here. Just less across-the-board and less money than in the US, usually 1 or a couple of Euros.
I love that vast majority of Europeans don’t tip. At least the ones thinking rationally.

I’ve been in the UK for the past week (first time). No tips, not even an option to tip.
Tip if your enjoyed the service. That’s about it. Not to subsidise shitty employment laws.

Here in the Netherlands, we only tip for fancy restaurants, if the service was good.
