When I read the badly-written documentation (manuals, datasheets, etc.) of a lot of Chinese products like calipers, stepper motors, and ICs, I often say to myself that I could fix the language easily for a small fee and make their products more appealing when the actual product itself works pretty well.
I wish there was a simple way to monetize this by offering such improvements to companies without a race-to-the-bottom market place. Perhaps companies offering bounties for such suggestions for improvements?
I always think the same thing, but then I think actually it's just whatever-bias: the ones that have got it figured out I'm not thinking about it or don't even realise they're similar companies.
And some you do realise but are pretty legit now, like Anker. Vevor is on its way perhaps.
But yes, it does often seem pretty nuts; even a font change would go a long way in many cases. They always use the same ancient computer-has-one-font (we didn't buy the other floppy) looking thing.
This work is going to go to LLM’s. If you’re not proficient in English, all you have to do is run your poorly-written paragraphs through an LLM to get passable professional paragraphs. For documentation that’s a no-brainer.
