Update strings.xml to reduce/remove references to Reddit #2
Conversation
Manually performed find/replace on words like "subreddit(s)", "Reddit", "Multireddit". This does not intelligently consider cases where saying "lemmy" or "community" wouldn't make sense, but is an initial step in de-branding from Reddit.

I had only avoided doing this so far because it'll also mean having to modify each of the different language variations too (e.g. values-zh-rCN/strings.xml) which is a bit of a pain, but if you fancy :P |

I totally understand and figured that would be a concern, but I was going to submit a post to the community where you posted about this, and see if other folks who speak those languages couldn't pitch in and help. |

Nice idea! It might actually be worth doing the flat replace in values/strings.xml, but also deleting all the translations that reference "redd", then we can get a translation system going. Would need to setup a replacement crowdin or something, I assume |

Unfortunately I'm not actually the most familiar with Android development, I mostly do ETL python/powershell development. I did however make some posts both on Reddit and on Lemmy: https://lemmy.world/post/885741 Feel free to post to either of these with updated thoughts/instructions on how you'd like to proceed. |
