Random thought:

Zooming increases fonts, buttons, toolbars, etc...

Maybe teach the users to use ctl+mouse wheel to zoom???

Or...  Maybe try an automated zoom with a little code, something like this:
https://di-grand.com/blog/en/css-html/6598-changing-the-browser-zoom-for-a-website-with-javascript-for-small-screens.html

I could see this being a handy little "senior-frendly-ize" mod, and if done right, would work with any theme.

(My vision is terrible, I spend most of my web time zoomed ~180%...  And 200%+ is looking more appealing every day...)

Also all other texts shall have the same meaning and not mean something completely different (as it was in this case with the "Send/Post" button).

But once my new forum is online, I may x-check both versions in detail.

Translating is a lot of work (according to Crowdin, we have around 7100 strings in SMF 2.1). Feel free to help.
For German, I try to be consistent but my focus has been on formal German because that's still what my forum uses.

Remember these are volunteers answering, so someone may want to stay friendly and humble. :)
