I’m currently working on a FOSS Discord bot. When I host an official instance of said bot, do I need a TOS and or Privacy Policy, or is a link to the license (in my case GPLv3) enough?
I live in Germany, if that makes a difference.

IANAL either but do have a ToS. Like slapping, say, a GPLv3 on your code, a ToS defines what users are allowed to do with your service. Imagine if someone found a way to use your bot to steal users’ data, or harass people online, etc. - you’d be angry because they are not supposed to use your bot for that.
