Hi everyone,

I’ve noticed that some forum posts are displayed differently or partially incorrectly in the German view.

It seems that content is being over-translated in some places, or translated in the wrong places, which changes the original meaning. The same posts are displayed correctly in the original English version.

**Expected behavior:**  
The translation should preserve the original meaning and translate technical terms and UI labels correctly — or not at all.

**Current behavior:**  
Parts of the content are translated incorrectly or unnecessarily, making titles and descriptions misleading or inaccurate.

**English:**

**Question:**  
Is this issue already known or being tracked?

Best,  
Niko

Hi @Gausi,
