I'm not sure why I decided to make this post. I guess I want to boast lol.

Anyways,

I started translating some GTK apps (because GNOME is the only DE that matters and there's nothing better than stock libadwaita) to one of the languages I know. I'm not a very professional translator (like how in the amount of KDE apps do you understand if a string is used in a button, label or something else?) but hopefully I can do at least something for FOSS besides just advertising it everywhere.

Also if you think this post is meaningless, it can be used as my confirmation of identity so people don't think someone is impersonating me when they see my nickname in about pages :)

Hey, congratulations! Your contribution matters, no need to downplay it! :-)

I started helping out with documentation, and some translations as well, and maybe posts like yours can help enabling more people to help in other ways, apart from writing code.

E. g. designing logos and graphics, enhancing the website or create one, providing quality assurance and so on.
