Please shoot me an email (the email address is in my bio) if you have an active Android developer account and are potentially interested in taking over the app; then I'll send you the info.
Why not just answer the question, even if somewhat vaguely (though not sure why)? Expecting every person to email you for a super secret private explanation? That’s… not in your best interest if you actually want to find someone interested. No one wants to email you to find out you made a basic note taking app of which there are a thousand and was why you couldn’t sell it, for example. But if it is something that sounds interesting — someone might be interested.
Otherwise, not to be mean, you’ll have a hard time finding someone who cares about another side-project dead app that couldn’t sell.
You might find someone, but otherwise you’re really just better off letting it fade to obscurity. That’s a really crowded space with a very low cost of entry (development-wise). Unless there is something significantly novel that makes it stand out, there is no real value to anyone taking it over for you. If you’re that worried about your personal details, which Google already has (can’t I ring that bell), make your own second dev account and transfer the app or call any costs the price of the anonymity you seek.
Not all new tech is good. As someone who experienced life before smartphones, I can unironically and without hyperbole say that life was better back then, and people were smarter and more informed. Now imagine this dumbification on steroids: That's what the AI revolution is.
> It makes no sense to bother individual translators with such a miniscule job
You're not bothering them if you're paying for the job. On your part, all you need to do is to set up a web-based interface that makes it easy and fast for them to log in and add the translations.
Machine-created translations are bad. They've become better over time, but they're still bad. If you've ever tried having your native language butchered in the way that machine-created translations butcher my native language on the daily, you'd understand why. I suspect a lot of the push for machine translations comes from monolingual developers in Silicon Valley.
Machine translations aren't all made equal though. The LLM ones, especially ChatGPT, are many times better than older systems. They are better writers and translators (of major common languages) than most humans I know... by far.
It wasn't immediately obvious that the form on the page can be edited. Also, several links aren't working. While the idea might be good, some work needs to be put into telling users what this is, why they would need it, and how to use it. Good luck!
Thanks for your comment. I agree with this "some work needs to be put into telling users what this is, why they would need it, and how to use it" and that's something I'm going to be focusing on in the near future.
Six months of darkness is a bit hyperbolic, to say the least. The sunshine, temperature and daylight situation in Denmark is on the whole comparable to what you'd find in Germany, the UK, and Northern France.
Also, long winters? You're thinking about Canada. The daily mean temperature in Aarhus, Denmark in January (the coldest month) is 1.3 C (34.3 F). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aarhus#Climate.
By comparison, Montreal, Canada has a daily mean temperature in January of -9.2 C (15.4 F).
Ooh, looks like they added that in late 2023. Man. In August 2023 I actually migrated all of my email to Proton and was ready to go when I realized they didn't support forwarding. Thanks for letting me know.
I second the support for Proton. Proton, however, is not EU-based (not that it matters in this context). It's Swiss. Switzerland, like Norway and the UK, is not part of the EU.
Yes, my mistake I was thinking Europe based (but having said that Swiss have stricter privacy laws than EUs GDPR and is a considered adequate for data transfer).
