Without having tried it, I don't like the SaaS-only approach of
Transifex, and I especially do not like it in conjunction with the
slogan »Take control of your localization experience«.

There is no way we can just switch the translation platform. I'm all
for trying alternatives as I agree Pootle is not much fun to work
with, but those should be tested carefully. And I would really
prefer a platform under our control over one that only claims to be
and looks like it is the opposite.
