Wasps are generaly all-purpose assholes who go out of their way to bother you, while I’ve had a hornets nest on my balcony and had one crawl over my fingers without issue.
I have had the same experience too in the US. Yellowjacket wasps are the absolute worst while hornets are chill unless you get really close to their nest.

Yeah, wasps are hardy a nuisance unless you’re close to their nest. Hornets on the other hand go out of their way to ruin my day.
It’s exactly the opposite in Germany.
