I don’t know about the author, but I’m on Linux and Android and the apps I see on Notion Calendar are for Windows and Mac for desktop and for iOS on phone.

I’ve tried the web client a bit when it came out but it just didn’t really click for me (as in, I didn’t see how it would be better than any email client that has an integrated calendar). Also, calendar web clients just don’t answer the issue, in my opinion. And regular Notion is slow and clunky in my experience, so I haven’t given them the benefit of the doubt on the Calendar part of their tooling. :)

Paris doesn’t need new housing, it just needs to keep upgrading its existing apartments :)

Otherwise yes sounds right.

They correspond to the larger eras in French economy.

• Industrial revolution
• Entre-deux-guerres, a period of strong urbanization and a huge push towards social housing. I suppose they included WW2 cause nothing was built there anyway.
• 1946 to 1970 is “les trente glorieuses”, the time of rebuilding everything, which means everyone had a job and could afford a house or apartment.
• The oil crash in 1973 ushered in a more modern era, usually more left-wing after May 68 and with the election of Mitterrand in 1982.
• The 1990 one is around when we elected a right-wing president and the public policies vastly changed.
• 2005-2006 was starting to get tough because of oil again, I believe. It is also around the beginning of the US subprime crisis, of which the consequences affected us all too.

Yeah, Anna’s Archive bragged about doing it (and they did great).

Poor Justin Trudeau and Joe Biden not even speaking their countries’ languages :(

(One of the first things I learned when I joined the Localization industry was to never use a flag to represent a language!)

I’d recommend donating to your national Wikimedia chapter if you aren’t in the US. They’re not funded by megacorps and they often struggle financially, and they’re the ones doing a lot of work on the ground.

yup

Let me guess. Rating companies are US-based?

I feel like OSMAnd is easier to use than the super advanced Vespucci. Haven’t gotten many cases where I couldn’t solve my StreetComplete issue in OSMAnd, and idk, Vespucci is just very overwhelming for me.

I have nothing to bring to your question but wanted to say hello, fellow “learning Inkscape for Wikipedia” person!

OP specifically asked about EU, where we generally have unemployment benefits and at least a bit of job stability :)

Alors perso je dis « le fédivers », et si on n’arrive pas à donner un nom unique aux choses, ben… ça montre bien à quel point ton post est juste. C’est super qu’on ait tou·tes notre propre petit nom pour ce qu’on utilise et qu’on soit libres.

J’étais sur Lemmy avant la débâcle Reddit, et j’ai failli me barrer parce que d’un coup les gens ne parlaient plus que de Reddit, ça avait un petit côté « mon ex m’obsède, elle aussi des fois elle buvait de l’eau… ça me fait penser à elle… ».

Heureusement jlai.lu était moins dans cette tendance et j’y ai trouvé ma place, mais je suis pour, archi-pour, avoir notre propre personnalité, notre propre ligne éditoriale, et ne pas essayer de s’agrandir à tout prix. On est bien, là ! La croissance viendra naturellement, parce qu’on est un endroit agréable. Si on la force, et qu’on n’arrive pas à gérer l’afflux, tout le monde va passer un mauvais moment.

It’s a Lemmarr now!

You can still come back!

I think so too and made an issue which I hope will get fixed someday!

I’m talking about WordPress :)

Last time I tried to @ a Lemmy community it didn’t work at all unfortunately.

Yeah I’ll ask for the “Hide US” button

It’s very, very hard to get laid off / fired in France if you haven’t done a major fuckup. It’s possible, but the notice period is 3 months during which you’re legally entitled to spend one or two working hours per day actually job hunting.

Unless you voluntarily quit, you get ~50% of your old salary for up to 18 months (unemployment benefits last for the same duration as your latest work contract, with an 18 month cap) as long as you can prove you’re job searching. If you exceed the duration you get an insufficient, but non-zero, financial help of ~500€/month (which would cover a 2 bedroom rental in any small city and one bedroom in a mid-sized city, but not housing for a major city like Paris or Marseille).

Families get extra subsidies based on the number of children, and for long-term issues you can apply for subsidized housing, etc.

Also, healthcare is very cheap (and many emergency care things are free, as well as all prescription medicine), which means that if you can cover room and board you’ll survive. You may have bad surprises but not “lifetime debt” bad surprises - that’s why whereas the US financial planning advice is to have 3-6 months of living costs saved, the French advice is 1-3 months.

Every day I appreciate how lucky I am that my country knows the concept of social security.
