Welcome! I think you can engage in the PR reviewing, focusing on optimizing fluency and authenticity, if you’re proficient in English. Is English your first language?

Hey I'm happy to help too.
I've been working in the U.S. since 2010 and I'm currently a TPM (Technical Project/Program Manager) at the University of Chicago. I'm working on SaaS products and I work closely with an awesome team of developers, platform engineers, and SecOps. I used to be a developer myself and I am still interested in doing it regularly nowadays. I can do manual translations, proofreads, ChatGPT + Gemini + Meta AI translation comparison, etc.
I admire and strongly respect your work, @krahets . This is a great project and I am happy to help in any way.
