The companion app, showcased at the middle of the page, looks surprisingly under-designed, despite LoveFrom having some of the best UI designers in the world.

Even their product names follow this pattern, leading to long and childish app names: "Mon espace santé" (My health space), "Mon espace France Travail"
This kind of soft infantilization, especially coming from the government, has always been rubbing me the wrong way.

Most of the kintsugi photos on Wikipedia do not state the date nor the origin of the object they depict, except for one, so I'm looking for something a bit more substantial.

I'm slightly doubtful that this is an authentic thing (by which I mean: "actually practiced in the 15th/16th centuries"). Most of the content around this technique on the web is not in Japanese, and even the Japanese Wikipedia entry about it [0] is quite terse.
Or maybe it's just that non-Japanese people have more interest in it than Japanese do?
If anyone has more knowledge about kintsugi, I would love some historical references which confirm that this technique was actually used in the past.

Hiding the standalone version purchase link helps them justify the move to a subscription-only service:
> The overwhelming majority of people (97% in fact) choose to subscribe to our new service and many of those who initially purchased a license later changed their mind and traded it in for a membership.

Which is quite dishonest IMO.

Will this typeface be only used for the UI and marketing, or also for Airbnb's logo[1]?
