A better translation platform is needed. The nb_NO translation is not good, as is the case with yet other translations. Transifex revels in producing lackluster quality, and doing anything about it is made more difficult still. I can’t use it at all, because the terms and conditions are draconian…

To be honest, I fear that changing the platform used for translations will not make the translations better. We have an active number of translators and we might lose them if we move away.

Hello, thanks for creating the request here on our forum, and thanks for chipping in and offering support! :slight_smile: [image] kingu: A better translation platform is needed. So far, Transifex seems to be working OK for us. Well, let’s say it does the job. However, as I wrote in the orig…

All evidence of projects moving over to the contrary, why would that be? Weblate holds every advantage over Transifex, not in the least among translators. What does happen when you move is it garners goodwill and attention. Just the ability to see what checks are failing helps greatly. It could …

https://hosted.weblate.org/checks/ are the checks for the entire Hosted Weblate instance. Pontoon splits the translation field into half the available horizontal space. This inserts breaks arbitrarily. That means more line-shifts between having to track different parts of a string and a translatio…

[image] kingu: https://hosted.weblate.org/checks/ are the checks for the entire Hosted Weblate instance. Sorry, was this in reply to a specific comment? Ah, I realise it’s about your earlier comment about being able to see what checks are failing. That’s certainly helpful! Weblate documentati…

With strings spanning longer than the shorter available space, linebreaks (in the view of translators) are inserted arbitrarily. In Weblate you can use Zen mode to have almost the full horizontal space available. Regular mode in Weblate has one one of those side-panels. The translation field and …
