Addon Developer Hub in the header, and Developer Hub entry in the footer menu doesn't render consistently over different locales. I observed that for my locale, sq, and for fr and de as well. The header has a style applied to this string: <small>Add-on</small> Developer Hub, so Developer Hub words render in red colour, while Add-0n is black. Translating it changes the order of the three words. For instance, sq should go: "Qendër Zhvilluesish Shtesash" or "Qendra e Zhvilluesve të Shtesave". Depending on where you apply the <small></small> tag, you either break the visual style of the original, or you stress other part of the sentence than original. See header.en.png and header.sq.png for an ilustration. From the same photographs you can see the difference over "Developer Hub" in the footer menu. The space assigned for this string is not enough for some translations. I couldn't come up with any truncation of the translation to make it fit without loosing the meaning of the original.
