FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Thanks!
Is the community going to be nice to English speaking people or are they going to pull the usual French snobbery?
French snobbery is mostly a Parisian thing, if not a stereotype, I'd say most french people would agree with that statement : Paris is not France, and you'd be surprised how welcoming French people are in other regions!
I'm sure the francophone members of the jlai.lu instance will be happy to help, I know I will ๐๐คโค๏ธ
I visited Paris some years back, tried to speak in my terrible tourist French whenever possible, and never found a hint of snobbery. I kinda get the impression that visitors with an attitude or who treat the city like an amusement park get the worst of the 'snobbery.'
I had a French co-worker for a while. His opinion on Paris was that the rest of France would divorce them if it was possible.
You'd have more chance of winning if you bet on the latter, I'll say that much.
Who would ever want to voluntarily visit fr*nce ๐คฎ๐คฎ
/s
Why are you exposing my scam ? ๐คก
One day I need to visit but I'm scared about not knowing French. I'll need to practice a lot first. I also have no idea how to do the r's lol.
Don't get it. Just drive over there, it's not that there's a border of some sorts. About 2 hours on the Autobahn from here (no speed limit btw, could crank my shit box to 166mph if I want it to die soon)
