Weapons and heavy weapons are not the same thing. I wish Germany would be more rapid and active in sending heavy weapons (and that the Swiss weren't blocking stuff, and that the French would step up more, etc.) but it's just not true that Germany haven't sent any weapons, millions of rounds of ammunition, rifles, anti-tank weapons, grenades, etc. have all been sent, along with ammunition for the howitzers sent by Holland. Germany did follow decades of established policy in rejecting initial transfer requests, but that was swiftly reversed within days of the war starting, as were rules preventing Germany sending direct military aid.
Like many of Western Europe's leaders, Scholz is clear that his top priority is preventing an escalation into a war between NATO and Russia, well ahead of ensuring that Ukraine wins. That doesn't mean that Germany is doing nothing.
This is the most up to date chart of military aid I can find:

A breakdown of some of the German deliveries is on Wikipedia
That's including pledges of deliveries etc.. they've been nearly useless so far and most of what they have done is the result of lots of pressure from other Western nations.
Apparently even the helmets they pledged still haven't arrived and at the start they were blocking deliveries from Estonia of artillery:
I takes a long time to negotiate these things and it is never simply black and white. Germany wanted to send the Gepard but could not because the Oerlikon cannons it uses are a Swiss design, that use Swiss supplied ammunition. So they had to seek an alternative source for the ammunition.
It's much easier for many (not you) to post memes about Germany = bad and UK = good. Yet we can all see the bulk of the weapon and financial support comes from the USA. As usual the EU/UK are slow to act with mostly rhetoric. "We will fight them on the beaches... with American weapons".
The US has a far bigger military, that's not an excuse for Germany, their efforts have been laughable with regular stalling/delays.
The memes are largely accurate in this case tbh...
