Trying to help set up and evolve a rationalist community in Germany would also be a decent task, but compared to specific research that actually directly aids our goals… I somehow feel it is less than what I could reasonably achieve if I really set my mind to it.
I wouldn’t write this option off too quickly. It sounds like you would be good at organizing a LW meetup and you would probably get a better idea of what to do from talking it through with people in that community. The people you surround yourself with makes a huge difference to your outlook. Also, you can always start a meetup and do other things.
PS. The QM sequence doesn’t teach you QM. It meanly teaches you how to interpret it. Or at least how not to. It also sounds like you should read some of the free will posts, organized here.
