How do you and your Francophone loved ones manage grammatical gender in French? I have a nonbinary friend who's a native English speaker and is learning French. They're trying to figure it out for themself. They're aware of «iel», and I'm planning to tell them about e.g. «amusant·e·s».

Please boost.

Probably because a lot of them were about my age or only slightly older in all these photos

Honestly I never liked the name Riot, it felt too violent. Just call it the Matrix Client or something.
