How comfortable are native Luxembourgish speakers speaking German?

I understand they don't like French very much, have an accent when they speak French, and are taught in French at school when they're older.
But with German, it's very similar to Luxembourgish and it's the langage (Reddit won't let me spell it correctly) of instruction when they start school, at a time where the mind is more easily able to pick up foreign languages.
With these comibned, does this mean German is like a second mother tongue for the natives?

to most people at my age that went through the system from the beginning it seems so. could just be my small bubble of friends tho..

Do the natives ever have a reason to speak German once they finish school? It seems as though you either speak Luxembourgish with other natives, or you speak French because of all the foreigners who speak French.
Would you only speak German if you met a German speaker from Germany or Austria etc?

Rarely, I had teachers that primarily used it, maybe in the north closer to ther german border but otherwise only with germans online for me atleast
