Hello Christopher, Just a reminder that we do have a group called GNOME Hispano, that is meant to serve as common place for a community of Spanish speakers and help with this English-Spanish language barrier in any country, we have a mailing list and a Telegram group. The group is currently quite Spain-centric, but we would love to expand our reach again as we did in the past. Feel free to reach out to us through our mailing list: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-hispano-list
