@pixelfed Please don't use "Dismiss" for such Alert buttons. This should be "OK" instead.

"OK" remains the same in every language, but any German translation of "Dismiss" becomes absolutely terrible, e.g.

See here:

developer.apple.com/design/hum

"In informational alerts only, you can use “OK” for acceptance"

@norbert @pixelfed This is set by the Apple Watch OS, we cannot change that button text.

@dansup @pixelfed OK, then Apple nowadays ignores their own guidelines. Terrible trend, unfortunately.

@dansup @pixelfed Just you know why this triggers me, have a look at the English explanations of all the possible German translations of "Dismiss" here:

translate.google.com/?sl=auto&

reject, discharge, lay off, condemn, refuse, terminate, disregard, repel etc. etc.

Depending on the message content this really creates a terrible combination.
Too bad that you can't fix Apple's mess here.
