You have chosen to use inclusive writing in French for the levels displayed on the profile page (specifically using the middle dot “•” to separate masculine and feminine endings). Not only is this already difficult to read for the average person, but for a dyslexic person or a screen reader user, it is downright unbearable. Furthermore, it does not reflect the current rules of the _Académie Française_. Finally, why implement this in French and not in Italian ?

If you wish to emphasize the inclusive aspect of your platform, you could easily add a gender setting in the user profile and adapt the agreement accordingly. Otherwise, the masculine form should prevail as the default.

Thank you for correcting this.

En même temps, “Wayspot” et “Wayfinder”, c’est pas vraiment dans le dictionnaire de l’Académie Française non plus.
