This is a question about the law of associations in Germany, as that is
where FSFE is registered

Financially, the constitution says fees are waived[1] based on the
efforts you contribute.  The wiki says the fee[2] is EUR 60 per year or
12 hours volunteering.  If you attend a monthly meeting you may qualify
on the volunteering basis.

Incorporation as an association in most countries gives protections to
the members from any financial or judicial consequences but only a
lawyer can give definite answers to that.

Being a member of a board or FSFE council may have more obligations and
risks but being an ordinary member is less demanding.

Regards,

Daniel
