| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | (For all apps I mean) | 14:22:55 |
 linsui | But I would say some app names should be translated, e.g., Fcitx5 for Android (Anthy Plugin). | 14:23:16 |
| linsui | Keeping them as is is not bad though. | 14:23:42 |
| linsui | They should be displayed in the user locale if it's translated upstream. | 14:24:23 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | > e.g., Fcitx5 for Android (Anthy Plugin). | 14:24:38 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | You'll translate "for" and "plugin" because the rest is untranslatable? :)) | 14:24:39 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | Right, I mean in general but each app with their own policy. | 14:25:20 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | I just want F-Droid for itself, to have it untranslatable ;) | 14:25:20 |

| linsui | I thought it's good to have all the names untranslable. It makes no sense to translate them for F-Droid if it's not translated upstream. The name will mismatch in F-Droid client and in launcher. | 14:32:19 |

| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | There are 2 problems in computing: | 14:44:35 |

Hi @arttuylh, I left a change suggestion on the name of F-Droid basics as I think "F-Droid Alkeet" is not a good translation for the name as it seems more like "Basics of F-Droid" than "basic version of F-Droid without nearby-share and panic functionlities" Thanks, I'll check that 🙂 | 15:06:03 |

 _hc | I'm (mother tongue en_US / father tongue de_AT). About "F-Droid Basic", my understanding of the name is that it is like branding, like "back to basics" e.g. https://duckduckgo.com/?t=h_&q=basic+brand&ia=web | 17:22:38 |
| _hc | but I didn't name it, and I'm not the maintainer, so that's just my two bits. | 17:23:00 |
