The three months (or whatever your contract says) are enforced by German employment law.

If your employer fires you and doesn’t want you to hang around for the rest of the notice period they can offer you a cancellation contract which basically means you are paid off to leave immediately.

I think it’s not terrible at all. You have a lot of time to find a new job and you get paid either way.
