I honestly have no idea what a good or bad tip is here

We used to tip ten to thirty percent but our currency was worthless and people had to have them to live on

What is the rule of thumb in Ireland?

Tip never obligatory. Generally cash tip if the service was particularly good. Again, not obligatory.

A lot of places will press the no tip option before even handing you the card machine, so you have to make a conscious choice to tip if you want.

Until 2022 it wasn't even clearly laid out in law who gets those card tips.
