I'm from Florianópolis and everyone I know hates that stupid billboard - it goes against the natural vibe of the city.

Not directly related, but it's so cool that three different people from Florianópolis have commented! I don't think I'd ever meet someone from that part of Brazil in my normal life. That's a little bit of internet magic

I was also taken aback tbh. But it makes sense considering Florianópolis is one of Brazil's major tech hubs.

Yep, I always see a couple fellow manézinhos (or at least residents) whenever Florianópolis is mentioned.

How is living in Florianópolis or in southern Brazil? Just out of curiosity. Lifestyle good?

Living in southern Brazil surpasses the rest of the country in terms of quality of life (especially safety) imo. As for living in Floripa, it's a pretty easy-going lifestyle, being that it's a capital that's also a subtropical island. Nightlife isn't as you'd expect compared to bigger cities, but the many beaches, beautiful landscapes and friendly people you meet here definitely make up for it. Honestly, I wouldn't live anywhere else for the time being.

Florianópolis is a peculiar little island. It has gotten much bigger and trendier in this millennium.[1] But it is still the island of witches and other supernatural creatures.[2] As a dinosaur from the 8-bit era, I appreciate and resent both worlds. As a first generation islander (manezinho), I am neither Little-Endian nor Big-Endian . I love it here.
On top of that, we are in the mullet season. [3]
