Any projects that want/require translations from English to Portuguese(Brazil)? (sh.itjust.works)

Recently I started doing translation suggestions for co-maps, and I felt like this was a good way to contribute to OSS (since I don't have much money lying around).

Are there any other projects that you know of that want/require translations to Pt-Br?

There are a few websites dedicated to translating free software: Hosted Weblate (by Weblate developers), Codeberg Translate (independent), GNOME's Damned Lies, KDE Localization, and GNU Translation Project, each hosting many apps and components that publish translatable sources in a standard way (such as Gettext PO files) and have continuous integration pulling back the work of translators. Weblate instances are somewhat of a wiki-like wild West, with enthusiasts translating many projects at once; they could use help with proofreading - if you notice a mistake in the software you use and it happens to be on Weblate, it's easy to sign in and fix it.
