For those who use and like gettext for localization.
This is a snippet to have a simpler and more powerful way to access it over PHP default.
It automatically uses sprintf when needed, and you don’t have to write a big ass line for a simple plural translation.

Hello everyone,
Welcome to my brand new Portfolio and DevBlog.
I hope you enjoy the look and the way things are organized now.
The last version no longer excited me to contribute, and since I wanted to contribute more, besides just having a gallery and share stuff in my blog, I decided to bring this version to life.
