[INTERNATIONALIZATION] More strings have been internationalized, so they are available for translation into various languages.
[CHANGED in Free] Remove the nudge to donate in support of the development for the free version of ASE. This has been replaced with a simple ask to share about ASE with your communities, which is also a way to provide support. Overall, the support nudge at the top of ASE settings page has been simplified. So, if you find ASE has been useful on your sites and in your workflow, hopefully you will consider adding a nice review, providing feedback, sharing about ASE or helping with translation efforts. Please do understand that by now, probably more than 300 hours have been spent on developing the free version of ASE over the course of one and a half year.
