The content is good for a top level post. The only thing you might want to change is the grammar/spacing issues (Using « instead of quotes, putting spaces between several punctuation marks, the sentence "Well, that one isn't any new, I'm using since like a decade" in the second paragraph, and a few other minor things.)

Edit for clarification: don't put the spacings between the punctuation marks that are there now.

Ok, thanks for your remarks. I'm not a native English speaker (I'm French) so it's not as easy to write "perfect English" for me, but I'll try to be even more careful next time.

Are you anywhere near Paris by any chance? We'd need to be a few more for interesting meetups :)

Yes, I'm near Paris (suburbs) :)

I'm often busy, but I would be very interested by a meetup if by chance I'm available that day.

A substitute would be "Well, this one isn't new, I've been using it for something like a decade" - and I've used the quote marks which are standard for English writing. Is your native language German? Hope this helps!
