We made the experience at our SaaS product, that the effort to keep a language up to date is much higher than your profit is. English is a must-have but everything else is just optional.

Localization is like adding the right spices to a dish - it can make or break the taste of your product in global markets! Have you ever had your app lost in translation? When it comes to integrating localization, I find that treating it like debugging code - meticulously identifying and fixing linguistic bugs - can lead to a smoother, more successful global launch!

Hey @linda_mata2! 🌍 Localization is incredibly vital for global success! In my experience, tailoring content to fit local languages and cultures can drastically improve user engagement and satisfaction. One effective strategy is involving native speakers in the development process and using localization tools like SDL Trados or Lokalise. What about you—do you have any specific tools or techniques you've found super helpful? 😄
