There's a lot of software aimed at conlangers, which I imagine represents a larger userbase than fieldworkers. Most of it isn't widely adopted, and isn't really very good. However, there's a lot of overlap in what conlangers and fieldworkers need. So *maybe* the #conlang community can help here.

„Laut einer Umfrage der Jewish Claims Conference vom November 2023,[…] haben in Deutschland zwölf Prozent der Befragten zwischen 18 und 29 Jahren noch nie etwas von den Begriffen Holocaust und Shoah gehört,40 Prozent wissen nicht, dass während der NS-Zeit sechs Millionen Juden ermordet worden sind.“
Die Forderung nach einem Schlussstrich habe es immer gegeben, sagt Aigner. „Aber der Ruf wird lauter u unverschämter.“ Sie kritisiert die AfD-Kandidatin. „Wer waren denn mit die ersten Internierten hier in Dachau? (...) Was für eine perfide Verhöhnung der Opfer!“
