Lingopie are scammers, don't buy their subscription!

Unfortunately I bought the lifetime subscription just to realize a few months later that a great portion of the content they offered disappeared from one day to the next. They removed ALL TV shows and left only short videos and pretty bad quality ones (they seem like home-made videos). After this I find no use in practicing with Lingopie anymore, since the content itself is not worth watching. The only suggestion they gave me was to buy a VPN subscription on top of what I already paid to be able to access the previous content. Apparently they renewed licenses only for the USA and left all the remaining countries without access to the previous content. Lingopie you're clearly scammers!

How to make swiss friends?

I'm tired of making friends with other immigrants because they just leave within 2-3 years. It's rare that they stay, and if they do, most likely they end up retiring/early retiring elsewhere (like their home country). What is your best approach to making local friends (that actually want to stay). This year most of my closest friends are leaving... and well I have to start all over again.

EDIT: I live in Lausanne for those wondering.

Just hit 200k CHF at 31 :)

Only been in Switzerland for 3 years but working since I was 23 and investing since I was 25. I come from a negative net worth family in Latinamerica, moved to Italy for studying and then to Switzerland. Super happy about it! Living frugally and working several jobs at the same time is what got me there.

Why has Lingopie removed almost all TV shows in the EU?

I paid for a lifetime subscription and now they removed almost all content. Only leaving super low quality and short videos. The reason I was paying for it was for the TV shows, and none are left...

I feel scammed...

Given that median net worth in Switzerland is ~150k CHF at what point are you considered "wealthy"?

I know this is canton and situation dependent. But let's say you're living in Zurich and single.

In a world with more ballerinas being professionally trained than there are spots available at companies, what do they do after realizing they'll likely won't be hired?

What alternative career paths do they pursue?

Se puede enviar dinero al extranjero con Wise desde Costa Rica?

Estoy buscando alternativas a Revolut visto que no está disponible en Costa Rica. Cuál es el método más rápido y con menor comisión que conocen? Wise funciona para enviar dinero hacia el extranjero o solo desde el extranjero?

MoneyGram no es una opción pues es un pago a una institución.

Please help me find the sunset picture

2 years ago I bought 3 IKEA LOMVIKEN frames, which my ex kept (and no way in hell I'm writing him). Anyhow I'm trying to find the picture/painting of the one in the middle. Not sure if it was original from IKEA or elsewhere as I bought it second hand. It's a sunset at the sea with some waves. Could anyone please help me find the source? I apologize if it's super blurry but I don't have anything better, as this is the only image I could retrieve on FB marketplace old message with the seller (announce was deleted).

I think I found it! https://desenio.ch/it-ch/p/poster/soft-waves-poster/. Don't know who the creator is though.

Why would the agency ask me for a “ contrôle OIBT”?

Is it likely that the landlord is trying to sell? The landlord has pulled off many dirty stuff in previous occasions. Such as taking a year to solve a mold problem and making an unannounced visit to my apartment to look for ways to make it seem my fault (even if the experts said it was a water leakage). Anyways, I think this control has a hidden sword as well. But I’m not sure what it is.

I also recently requested “prefecture” a rent reduction for the year I had to live with mold.
