I'd love if long term renting were more viable in Scotland (and the whole UK but it's devolved), like long term renting is viable in Germany. However there are not enough adequate consumer protections in place for that to be the reality.
One thing I think about sometimes is that spinning up a limited company takes an afternoon and £30 so companies can avoid the stink of scandal with a quick official name change and rebrand. (This one being called "Torah Capital" after the Jewish holy book seems almost like an antisemitic joke...)
I used this site. I think it checks to see if someone else has already archived an article. Just clicked through the options to see if it came up.

Suspect the error is a red herring and I just can't edit the post after it has been moderated or something. Not important really since the comment is right there!
Disgusting to read about. Barricade the village! There's only 1 road in

Edit 1: My work blocks archive.* links since it works like a proxy so was unable to add it myself to the main post. Will edit it now.
Edit 2: Edit says "Language not allowed" when I try to save so potentially the moderators of lemmy.world or this sub also don't allow it

Yes, as a mod I can't update links either. Must be an admin power. Try setting the language to English?
Setting the language to English let me update the post body with the archive link - thanks!
Fuck kind of world you've been living in??
