Application description is very important. And it must be translatable to help for regular users to understand why they may need the app.
The F-Droid automatically gets descriptions and screenshots from a special folder:
https://f-droid.org/docs/All_About_Descriptions_Graphics_and_Screenshots
The folder just needs to be in the repository and during a next release the F-Droid will pick the descriptions.
I also added the translate.transdroid.org to the README to make it easier for people to understand how to translate.
Currently the domain is an alias to the https://crowdin.com/project/transdroid and this makes a browser nervous. Maybe we can just use the direct link to the Crowdin? Or the translate.transdroid.org should be an HTTP redirection.
Since the Fastlane descriptions are translatable then you'll need to add them to the Crowdwin project too.
I don't know if the search and lite won't be affected by the change. If they are build from the same source then maybe during a release they'll also get the same description. But in general I don't get why this app exists. The lite version was intended for PlayStore because they don't allow RSS, right? What's a problem with the RSS?
Maybe this two mini apps should be removed from F-Droid to not confuse users
