localize.proton.me / Discourse: our platform to share information and communicate
Crowdin Enterprise discussions, exchanges in strings’ comment, Discord, documents on a Proton drive… It’s time to simplify and gather everything in one place and have a single source of truth! After checking several options recommended by the community, the Proton Localization Team has chosen Discourse.
Since 19th December 2022 all communications and briefings have been happening on Discourse, a single platform to simplify everyone’s life, while localization will remain on Crowdin Enterprise.
- Crowdin Enterprise is dedicated to general remarks or questions addressed to the Proton team.
- Discourse is dedicated to all linguistic questions, remarks, and discussions, about a specific string, several strings, or in general. This is much more efficient and collaborative: all volunteers and language leads have better visibility here.
Current categories and subcategories on Discourse:
| Category | Content & Purpose |
|---|---|
| Announcements | News and information dedicated to the great volunteers who help us. |
| Jump Start Guide | Just joined the Proton localization community? Here’s the guide to get you started. |
| Knowledge Base | The essential “How to” to properly and quickly translate and proofread. |
| Style Guides | All there is to know about localizing all together, in a consistent way, with the Proton style (guidance for all languages and guidance for some specific languages). This is also where you can share feedback about the Style Guides. |
| Glossary | The best way to ensure consistency. We welcome feedback and suggestions. The Proton Glossary is actually integrated into Crowdin. In this category, you can suggest a change or propose a new term. |
| Questions & Feedback | A place to discuss general and language-specific topics. |
| Legal Notice | Legal information about the Proton localization community. |
If you have any questions, feel free to ask on Discourse: Questions & Feedback > General question.
