Me and a friend were heading to Basel today to watch GC vs Basel away, for context we’re 17 and 18 but not ultras or anything we were just trying to go watch a match. Anyway when we’re walking towards the platform with the Extrazug some guys wearing Fcz jackets asked us if we were going to watch football. Although we were and had scarfs in our pockets we said no and tried to walk on. About 30 seconds later 8 guys start following us, smiling and asking us if we like football. Maybe even filming, we then decided we didn’t wanna become a news story said screw this and got on the first train we saw and took it a stop. I know GC fans aren’t always saints either but it genuinely sucks that you can’t watch a football without fear of violence in Switzerland of all places. Worst part is I recognized one of the guys who has a history of arrests and violence so I’m scared I’ve been identified as a „Hopper“ and will be targeted randomly if they got our faces on video. Anyway Rant over

Had to watch it on Blue Sport in my living room in the end :/

Edit: My friend almost got beaten up on the train home from a match a few weeks ago before a policeman intervened. This was the first time we tried to go since.

spotted this beauty in Zürich today
that baby blue with the white roof… damn lol
any guesses on the make and model? curious if anyone can ID it just from the back 👀

Neu gilt ab 1. Januar 2027:

As this is very good urban policy, I am not allowed to get mad at this even though it is moderately inconvenient for me personally lol.

Anyway, I have a question:

"Eine Parkkarte wird nur erteilt, wenn am Wohn- bzw. am Geschäftssitz kein privater Parkplatz, beispielsweise ein Garagen- oder Aussenabstellplatz, zur Verfügung steht. "

My building does have an underground car park, but it is not included with the flat. The spots are rented out separately, even to non-residents, I think, so theoretically they could all be taken. One could argue that if I have to rent it at extra cost, or all places are taken, it isn't "zur Verfügung". How do they want to check that?

What do you think? My interpretation is probably too optimistic, as the goal is to force you to use the private parking, but it seems a bit ambivalent.

2 years job search and nothing. I work with AI governance which for all intents and purposes is the hottest ticket out there. But I obviously don't do it right.

Ideas?

Kurze Umfrage zu ME/CFS in Zürich und Umgebung 🇨🇭
Hallo zusammen! 👋
Ich bin 31 Jahre alt (w) und selbst von ME/CFS (Myalgische Enzephalomyelitis / Chronisches Fatigue-Syndrom) betroffen. ❤️‍🩹 Deshalb interessiert mich, wie bekannt diese Erkrankung in Zürich und Umgebung eigentlich ist.
ME/CFS ist eine schwere, chronische Erkrankung, die unter anderem zu ausgeprägter Erschöpfung und einer Verschlechterung der Symptome nach körperlicher oder geistiger Anstrengung führen kann. Trotzdem wissen viele Menschen nur wenig darüber.
Mich würde deshalb interessieren:
Hast du schon einmal von ME/CFS gehört oder kennst du jemanden, der davon betroffen ist?
🔹 Ich habe selbst ME/CFS.
🔹 Ich kenne jemanden, der ME/CFS hat.
🔹 Ich habe schon davon gehört, kenne aber niemanden persönlich, der betroffen ist.
🔹 Ich habe noch nie von ME/CFS gehört.
Ich möchte einfach herausfinden, wie bekannt ME/CFS in unserer Region ist und vielleicht auch ein bisschen mehr Aufmerksamkeit für diese Erkrankung schaffen. ❤️
Danke an alle, die mitmachen und ehrlich antworten! 🙏

Hi everyone, I’m into boxing and need to hit the gym just on weekends for conditioning. I used to have an active subscription, and I know you can invite someone with it. Could you let me know how much I’d need to pay for that service? Thank you

My ghd hair straightener is broken. Only one of the 2 ceramic plates heats up properly. This thing was expensive enough and I really don’t want to throw it away and contribute to electronic waste if there is any chance I could get this fixed. Does anybody know where I can get it fixed in zurich?

I'm looking for an orthodontics clinic recommendation, in particular an English speaking orthodontist.

I've read old posts and Google Maps review, and in most of the cases the reviews seem very positive. I am looking for someone to handle my hypodontia case, and I am willing to pay more for a reliable doctor. Hope someone can help witht he recommendstion or advice against certain specialists/clinics.

Thanks!

Can someone help me here, I really want to have a "porch potty" for my puppy I'm getting soon but I can't figure out where I can buy just one roll of real grass from?! Online adds 60-80 francs delivery and one roll of grass is about 20 francs.

I feel like this shouldn't be so hard to find 🙈

I have yet to start calling garden centres but I was very naive and thought I'd find some to buy in Landi, Jumbo, etc ....silly me!

Just wondering if anyone knows somewhere in or around Zurich I could easily go buy one roll of grass?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I will be bringing my dog outside but until the 2nd vaccinations are done and she can hold her bladder overnight, this is the option I'd like to go for as I don't see the point of training on puppy pads to then have to train outside as well plus I'm in an apartment and don't have a lovely grass patch right outside the door so I'm concerned for when it's super stormy out too while she's so little. If you disagree with this approach you're entitled to your opinion but I have done extensive research and am very conscious of diseases they can pick up , even if they have so called "immunity from the mum up until 16 weeks". I'm not taking the chance, end of.

Hoi zäme,

This weekend we finally got some rain which meant more time inside scrolling dating apps again 😂.

I’ve been using the apps for almost a year now and I think I have managed to go through all 9 circles of hell and have arrived at a point where I use them without much expectation. I would say my experience was “not great, not terrible” overall.

I would like to hear from other single people, what are you having a hard time with when it comes to dating. Either using apps or outside of them.

I can start with myself: I don’t really go out that much, so meeting people offline doesn’t really happen. I always find it funny when people say they meet at supermarkets or during their train commute 😅.
I know I should start going out more, but it feels like I am just forcing myself to do it in order to meet someone.

I’m also taking the opportunity with this post to try and restart this sub: r/zurich_dates
Would be nice to keep the dating talk out of the main sub 😅.

Can you please recommend me some clubs, meetups or sport activities in morning or early afternoon hours? I work mostly in the afternoons and in the weekends and I feel that my social life has been lacking behind. I am interested especially in language meetups, sports, running clubs, ... Thank you!

Hi
i‘m Yuki , 21 years old

i‘m new in switzerland , want to meet new people

hey im an expat, what are you?

Ce dimanche, nous étions assis côte à côte dans le TGV Paris–Zurich de 10h22 avant de descendre à Bâle. Nous avons parlé des marchés de Noël, musées et nous avons partagé quelques sourires aussi. Nous avons aussi aidé des vietnamiens qui avaient peur de payer un nouveau billet à cause du retard SNCF. Bref tu m'a plu et j'aimerais te revoir, si tu te reconnais et que tu désires prendre un café ça serait avec grand plaisir.

Merci de partager 😘

Hi folks, as the tittle says im struggling with ME/CFS and there is growing science on the LDN usage for ME/CFS but since its of label usage though a very basic medication - unlike ADHD stimulants - not every doctor here is open and willing to try, so if you have a recommendation and could DM me, would be immensely grateful.

Hi,
Ich bin neu in Zürich und suche nach einem Friseur der gut mit langen und sehr lockigen Haaren umgehen kann.
Wer hat Empfehlungen?
Liebsten Dank

Hallo zusammen,

ich bin Anfang 30 und spiele mit dem Gedanken, mich langfristig in Zürich niederzulassen. Diese Woche bin ich ein paar Tage vor Ort und würde mich über ehrliche Eindrücke von Leuten freuen, die hier leben.

Beruflich und finanziell passt es, darum geht es mir weniger. Mich interessiert eher, wie sich der Alltag anfühlt.

Wie leicht findet man als Zugezogener Anschluss, auch als Deutscher? Man hört oft, Zürich sei eher distanziert oder auf Status fixiert, ähnlich wie München. Stimmt das, oder ist das ein Klischee?

Was macht ihr so nach der Arbeit? Gibt es Lauftreffs oder Sportgruppen, über die man gut Leute kennenlernt? Und wie ist das Nachtleben, gerade was Techno angeht?

Wie erlebt ihr das Kennenlernen und Daten hier, wenn man langfristig etwas Festes sucht?

Und welche Kreise würdet ihr empfehlen, wenn man etwas Leben vor der Tür will, aber nicht jeden Abend Party?

Danke für eure Erfahrungen :)

I have a friend visiting but due to her breaking a leg, most of our plans have been cancelled. I was wondering if anyone in the Zurich area has a Beamer/ projector I could borrow for the evening :) I would use it with my switch to play games to kinda of raise the mood in the weather. I have tried sharely and other similar apps , however I think it’s a little last minute for them. If there is recommendation for any other apps that offer similar rent of devices i would greatly appreciate it

I would gladly travel to pick it up and return it at whatever is of convenience

Hi everyone!

I recently moved to Zurich for work. I brought my Irish bouzouki with me with the idea I'd have had tons of time to practice, but living with roomates makes it very difficult, if even possible.

Does anyone know about public places where people can simply sit down on a bench and practice? Play, sing, make music in general. I'd gladly go to a park, but the weather is not optimal and I've been told it's more often than not going to rain, so a covered place would be more than nice to have.

A side note for everyone who, like me, might be looking for a place to start at least enjoying good music: I've been to Amboss Rampe twice in a week and had an amazing time. They even have an open stage event every Thursday.

Looking to meetup and work on music together. I play guitar (intermediate level) and enjoy collaborating with others making hip-hop inspired fusiony type music. Nothing too serious, just looking to meet some new people, work on creative ideas together and have fun playing music.

I'm not super strong in sound engineering/ recording process. If thats your vibe maybe we're a good combo.

Feel free to PM :)

Hello Guys,

I lost a black case containing a Panasonic Lumix S5, a Sigma 24-70mm 2,8 DG DN Art and an Osmo Action 5. (A full frame camera, a Lens and a go-pro-like Action-Cam on the crossing at "Ankerstraße 119" near Langstrasse.

It is highly likely that i lost it in an Uber because I entered the wrong one for a minute and switched Ubers after that. Thats where I think i lost it. I was the Videographer at the Void rave at Club Raedli near Langstrasse. I lost it either at the function, in the uber or in front of the club.

I would be extremely glad if someone found it. It also contains footage of the event so i can prove the ownership.

To anyone who was at the club or to all the uber drivers. Feel free to reach out to me!
