I can understand what you mean.

@nagi_neko Ah, thank you very much!! I often get 以降/以後/以来 mixed up 😖
If I say 確認しておいている is that also a bit unnatural?

@Michihabla I'm sorry I made a mistake.
My mother(Japanese) says 「その時以降」 is correct phrase.
I got 以降/以後/以来 mixed up...😭
「確認しておいている」is a bit unnatural.
「確認しておく」or 「確認している」is natural.

@nagi_neko Ah, no worries!! Thank you very much, I appreciate it! I'll have to study the difference between those phrases more ><

@Michihabla 「ビデオ通話」をよく使います。「テレビ電話」でも通じますが、これだと昔のSF映画に出てくる装置のようです。
