found what to translate in Lokalize takes ~5 seconds, analyzing big projects (Fedora is smaller than KDE \
now) in Weblate takes minutes. Uploading big files (libguestfs and its man, libvirt, Weblate docs, etc.) \
literally takes up to 10 minutes for just one file. I can imagine how long it would be to upload KStars, \
Krita and its docs (the last update required several dozens of files to be uploaded, the translation \
itself contains several hundred files), RKWard, KMyMoney or LabPlot.
Hi, I am Catalan translator in multiple projects on Transifex (SubSurface, MKVToolNix, etc.) and if it \
were not for the fact that they are relatively small, I can download the translation as a PO file, etc. I \
would have thought to start.
**I am only translator and time spent is much more.**
Only advantages: the translation is done and makes it easier to find translations for other projects \
(more visibility).
