>not knowing when the next "please move out, I need this apartment for other purposes" note comes, is sorta stressful.
Yeah I've had this happen in the UK, can be inconvenient. The fix is legislation and increased requirements for landlords.
I moved to another country where it isn't possible for a landlord to evict a tenant during a tenancy agreement (unless they are withholding rent) and now thankfully I don't need to worry about this at all.
in some of those countries, repeated time limited contracts are also not legal. once you live somewhere for more than 6 months or a year (or whatever the period is specified by law) then the contract automatically converts into an unlimited contract with monthly payments.
to get evicted, you need to withhold paying rent for some time (more than just a few months) or cause severe damage to the property.
if the property is the only property being rented out by the landlord, then the landlord could evict you if they need that property for their own children or for themselves.
