 linsui | I prefer it's maintained by you but not a problem to me. I don't use Telegram anyway... The Chinese room is bridged with an existing Telegram room and it also works well. | 07:46:46 |
 Sylvia | Wonder who maintains that one | 07:47:22 |
| Sylvia | We really need to have some list of contacts xD | 07:47:34 |
| linsui | IIRC it's maintained by yzqzss . | 07:48:05 |
| linsui | Ah, right, see https://forum.f-droid.org/t/topic/16063/22. | 07:50:17 |

Yes the Git* UI is not hard to learn but Weblate is made for translations, and with the automated external services it helps us grately. | 08:15:24 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | *greately | 08:15:33 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | Pfft.. | 08:15:39 |
| linsui | It seems now only the simple translate works. Does it only happen to me? | 08:16:46 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | That Google/Deepl/Bing/etc don't show automated? Yes, gone for me for a while too, I thought that maybe it's a browser setting/ads blocking/thirdparty thing locally | 08:17:58 |
| linsui | Then it's not... | 08:21:27 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | They have ratelimits, so not hard to imagine Weblate host reaching them. | 08:22:50 |
 Mathijs | In reply to @rdfg77:kde.org
Mathijs (F-droid): What's the plan for the Telegram bridge? Do you have a Telegram account and will do that youself? Or we need to find a Telegram for that? Right, I am back from vacation, this is indeed pending on someone with a telegram account that can create a telegram room | 08:33:26 |
| Mathijs | Als Sylvia mentioned, afaik the telegram ends for other bridged fdroid rooms are done by thermatk | 08:34:27 |
| Mathijs | So I would argue that having that consistent is worthwhile | 08:34:48 |

Yes the Git* UI is not hard to learn but Weblate is made for translations, and with the automated external services it helps us grately. I was thinking more that some translators would rather work directly with the blog posts Markdown file than using Weblate, GitLab, etc. | 08:41:14 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | Even so I'd like them to use Weblate so that UI does the language checks and so on | 08:45:44 |
|  FestplattenSchnitzel joined the room. | 08:54:52 |
| _hc | yeah, that would be hard to provide outside of Weblate. | 09:26:41 |
 K.B.Dharun Krishna | Hi, was reviewing Tamil strings, I noticed that WiFi had inconsistent capitalization across source strings in some places it is referred to as Wi-Fi whereas in it other places it is WiFi or wifi. I guess we can update the strings to follow a single convention. (Ref. https://hosted.weblate.org/browse/f-droid/f-droid/en/?q=WiFi&sort_by=-priority%2Cposition&checksum=) | 10:35:35 |

I was thinking more that some translators would rather work directly with the blog posts Markdown file than using Weblate, GitLab, etc. Doesn't the Weblate file download/upload function fill that need? | 12:06:27 |
| _hc | I don't know, I only do a little translation for German, and mostly corrections. If translators are happy with translating blog posts in Weblate, then I think we can try to make it work. Seems like trying Weblate's new Markdown support makes sense. | 13:09:14 |
| _hc | linsui: could you try adding new test component for fdroid-website-posts with the Markdown mode? | 13:09:37 |
| _hc | As long as we don't merge those commits, I think it won't break production. | 13:09:54 |
| Licaon_Kter[xmpp] | GunChleoc (co-shaoghal.net): should work iirc | 13:09:57 |
| _hc | That does mean using gettext format for the file download/upload though, and I don't think many people know how to convert Markdown to gettext | 13:10:33 |
| _hc | If Weblate is directly working with Markdown, then that problem is solved. | 13:10:53 |
