In France, not only we got the creation of a neutral third person pronoun (which didn't existed up until now because the masculine form was considered the neutral one), but the Académie Française decided they weren't inclusive enough and created what's called "inclusive writing".

To explain it simply: up until recently, masculine form was also considered the neutral form when talking about groups of individuals of mixed sexes. For exemple, you have 9 actresses and one actor, and should you want to talk about the group as a whole, you'd stay it's a group of actors. Now, with inclusive writing, it's supposed to be a group of "actor.ress.es". Yes it uses dots within words, and no, at no point in french language up until now did we used dots for anything other than ending a sentence.

Funniest part in all of this is that inclusive writing made it harder to dyslexic children to learn proper spelling, but also, governement banned inclusive writing from its own official texts, because it's an headache to use it. No one wants it, yet people are still supposed to use it.
