Hi there 👋

admin: @yzqzss.

I am just a bot, not an AI, all changes come from human(s).

I'm pushing changes from https://toolate.othing.xyz, automatically PR every 24h

• toolatebot@GitLab
• toolatebot's PRs@GitHub
• Service status

Why you i18n my app?

• (old) ~~@yzqzss hangs out on F-Droid from time to time, and if he finds a nice app that doesn't have Chinese, he will occasionally localize it on a whim.~~
• (2024-08-22) Tracking&Adding new apps on F-Droid to Toolate. (testing) You can opt-out
• (2025-02-10) Users can now create projects on Toolate themselves.

Can I use Toolate as my project's i18n platform

Yeah.

Is Toolate a long-term project?

Yes, If the project is terminated, three months' notice will be given.

Currently, our server has plenty of capacity.

(2025-02-17) To save resources, unreasonable large repos (>300MiB typically) and long-inactive projects will be removed.

Contact?

@ @yzqzss or comment on any PR.

Why do you not use hosted.weblate.org?

Weblate generously provides their hosted.weblate.org for open-source projects. It has high entry requirements. Most random projects in the open-source world, especially newly created ones, basically don't fulfill their requirements. It also requires upstream project approval to be added.

Are there other similar instances?

try out https://translate.codeberg.org/ from codeberg.

Known issues

• When using "GitHub Pull Request" way to push changes, the destination repo setting will be ignored, and the bot will automatically fork the upstream repository and PR to the upstream.
• ~~The "Current translation status" chart in the PR message seems incorrect sometimes.~~
• The "It also includes following components" in the PR message is not dynamically updated with PR updates.
