it will get boring after a while
Yeah, I even thought of making Stringlate game-like but I don't know how a game of translating strings could look like… Some reward? Badges? Helped translating 10 applications! — Given to true collaborators.
Having them sorted by length helps me get the shorter ones faster, keeping my interest strong.
Sorting by length vs sorting alphabetically (the change isn't hard at all). But what will happen when only the long ones are left?: "Oh darn, 50 strings left… and every string will be as long or even longer than the previous one!"
You have to translate them all! anyway, long or short, that does not make a difference. ;)

Conclusion then? The badges idea sounded fancy though!
Did not answer the gamification thing because I don't care, better open another issue with that to see if anyone cares. :)
Is this still relevant @licaon-kter or kinda solved since the progress bar is now weighted?
I would still like it, if it's not hard, if you want etc.
You know though. My first impression of this was that you only wanted sorting by string length instead alphabetically. But you really meant to have it as a setting, for people to choose. The later makes way more sense.
Edit: The fun part is that there were 5 other places where I needed to iterate over the strings and by default, sorting was done. Now no sorting is done, so some things should be (slightly) faster too.
Thanks
Did not see this elsewhere either, the idea is that since every little project can have lots of strings (eg. Stinglate has >110 OMFG!) it will get boring after a while, so it helps me seeing that I translated a lot of them. ;)
Having them sorted by length helps me get the shorter ones faster, keeping my interest strong. I already do this by just skipping long ones until they're the only ones left.
