Translation template for Drupal 11 landing page

Created on 16 December 2022, about 2 years ago

The basic idea behind this task is that people grasp content faster when it is written in their native language.
This also applies to the new great landing page of Drupal 11.
The German translation of this page is ready. We have been providing this kind of translation since Drupal 7. At least in Germany, these things convert great.
This is probably because we have been dubbing so many films in this country since the end of 1945. This means that many people here are used to having content served in their native language.
Not because they can't speak English or because it would be too much effort for them, but because they have been accustomed to having media and blockbusters presented to them in their native language since 1945.

Since Germany started dubbing foreign-language films, it has become a huge industry and the younger the people are, the more they are initially accustomed to having films, video games, productivity software and the like offered to them in a localized version. So it's not for nothing that we are also called the dubbing nation.
That's why many people here are still used to being able to consume content in their native language. We find that pleasant here and also expect it. Hollywood is to blame, so to speak, for discovering films as the medium with which American values and behavior can be transported to Germany.
Because I know that some decision-makers in this country prefer to receive content in their own language when it comes to choosing a product, I have taken the liberty of translating the landing page for Drupal 11.

Of course, it is certainly not an easy task for non-native speakers to get a translation, no matter what language, live on drupal.org.
On the other hand, the fact that you can grasp your own native language faster and easier applies not only to Germany.
