Suggestion: Weblate for Translations
Feature/enhancement description:
Hello,
I'd like to suggest using Weblate for translations, makes it much easier for the translators.
I would then add Swedish. :D
Hey! Yeah, my custom solution doesn't scale very well i got to admit 😁. I'm looking into it!

Also has the following advantages:
- keep track of what's missing
- automatically push translations to git
- simple for translators: Here's a string, now what is that in $language? And then the translator just types it in
- keep track of the translators for the credits page (forgetting a translator will get them frustrated and you lose them)
I'm using Weblate to contribute to:
- usageDirect (https://codeberg.org/fynngodau/usageDirect)
- Traewelling (https://github.com/Traewelling/traewelling)
- SchildiChat (https://github.com/SchildiChat/SchildiChat-android)
Works great! Originally convinced Traewelling, they had a similar solution as yours. It was so painful I did not complete my translation. Using Weblate I then did it in a day, IIRC.
