Why is contributing soo hard
Back In Time is a round about 15 years old backup software using rsync in the back. I'm part of the 3rd generation maintenance team there. A lot of work in investigating and fixing issues, understanding, documenting and refactoring old code.

Free Software project "Back In Time" requests for translators
Most of the strings are form two past developers (the founder and the past maintainer). Since last summer we took over the project and try to clean things up. Some of the source strings just got a review from a linguist and he also mentioned about that exclamation marks. But he kind of stopped at some point because it was to much. ;)
Sources strings are source. So you have to open an Issue/BugReport for that. The platform (weblate) don't offer that feature currently to directly connect a string to a new ticket. You have to check out https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/issues .

looking for a project
Back In Time is a project born round about the year 2008. A rsync-based backup software with a GUI for Linux. It seems that there is a new team of maintainers reanimating the project with support from the previous maintainer. It looks like it is on a good way.

General tips for Debian-newbie?
People need to stop recommending rsync for backups. Some reasonable, time-tested software suggestions are Back In Time, Borg+Vorta, and my minimal CLI choice, rdiff-backup.

What are you doing for your backups?
I use backintime to back up files in my home directory, and use Timeshift for backing up system settings (really useful if you're messing around with your grub and fuck something up, speaking from experience).

Best and easiest way to backup?
I use BackInTime for userspace backups, Timeshift for system files.
