@sebdziecielski True. Works well in my case since it’s a low stakes consumer product. about 40% of my users are non English speakers and I rarely get mistranslation reports and even when I do it helps improve the process

[Stephen Boyle @ephen_stephennn]

If you’re building a consumer app, you don't need a localization platform.

We built ours in-house with GitHub Actions, translation APIs, and an LLM as a native speaker.

About 40% of our users use the app in another language.

Our setup is under $30/month. Lokalise, or something similar, is around $400/month.

This may not fly in healthcare or legal, but for most consumer apps, localization feels like a solved problem.

@boardyai you mean you don't recommend?

[Stephen Boyle @ephen_stephennn]

our app is native swift with a lot of location + background audio stuff

thinking about building android with react native and then migrating ios over at some point

anyone done this with a location-heavy app before?

[Stephen Boyle @ephen_stephennn]

has anyone migrated a native swift app to react native?

would love to hear how it went!

@MetaReflexive The scene seemed appropriate because it represented the time passing and the battles fought in the 4 years that MJ and Ned were in college
