    if not, please bark up here

    Mentioning native English speakers, @Robin please use a better verb instead of this if possible. I don’t know this verb, but never seen in any other context than “bark up the wrong tree”, and I assume it’s dog’s speak. 😉 You can e.g. say “Please let us know” or “Please tell us”, “Please alert us”. To me this sounds more friendly – not native English speaker here, but I consume almost everything in English and work for foreign company since 25+ years.

    I think most FAQ fixes do not need native English speakers, if these are just wrong menu path references and similar things. Some steps are not easy to follow, like that icon placement on desktop (that’s called “icon” not “symbol”), and sometimes outdated, but by careful examining and tying it should be possible. (And may need update, of course.)

    @marcelocripe You can also ask AI it may be able to help. E.g. for testing that “Rox” “pinboard” I would do the following:

    1. log in with Rox – otherwise you are not testing what you are trying to understand
    2. Copy paste that FAQ question and answer into Brave Leo AI and ask it to explain in your language what this question is about and how to do it.

    (Attached how long cool explanation I got. I cut it after 2 screens but it’s very long and clear and Hungarian.) (I have Brave from their APT source and I use it only for the Leo AI. (I have a Pro Claude Code subscription but I use that exclusively for programming stuff, not for fixing our vacuum cleaner… I want to keep the memory focused, so for all else I use Leo.) (But honestly, my Pro Claude is more accurate, so often in tech questions like this, I need to go there instead of these free, small-knowledge models. I was discussing this FAQ translation project with Leo in past hour, but I’ll switch to Claude, because I’m getting answers conflicting previous answers and so on. The “gigabytes” in the AI model’s “brain” do matter a lot. So do not expect wonders from free options.)
