Hi there,
Could we have a category for people who speak Chinese (and Chinese translators)?
Let me know if this is not the place for the request. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!
For sure, I created one. What we still need are some translations and at least one person who keeps an eye on the category and reports spam etc.
@mik Can you translate the following things for me? I’ll then use them for this topic.
Title:
About the Chinese category
Description:
This category is for all Chinese-speaking people to talk about F-Droid and free and open source software on Android in general.
Thank you, @NicoAlt, for created the Chinese category. Since I’m the one who requested it, I think, it’s my responsibility to take care of it until we have more Chinese members and someone else would like to take the hat.
And here are Chinese translations:
Title:
关于中文分类
Description:
该分类用于中文用户讨论 F-Droid 以及 Android 平台自由开源软件等相关话题。
No problem, great to see interest from you language!
Great, thank you!
I needed to lower the “minimum allowed topic title length in characters” to change the title because it was at 15 before and you needed less characters to say what I said in English
Now I set it to 5, is this OK for the Chinese language?
15 characters is too long for Chinese topic title. 5 will do and is very well-educated choice
average length of English word: 5.5
1 English word = 1.8 Chinese character
15/5.5 * 1.8 = 5
Great to have a Chinese category in this f-droid community. Thank both of you!
I am going to have a very first post under this label.
Maybe the first step is sorting out some info about F-droid resource in Chinese language then we can have some discuss/ brainstorm for F-droid outreaching or promotion to Chinese societies ?
Thanks for the start!
Do you know already that the whole website is now localizable? It isn’t deployed to F-Droid.org yet but the development version is already available in Chinese. You can help translating on Weblate.
