Setting up a multisite with multilingual support can definitely get a bit tricky with all those configurations. If you're looking for a way to keep things clean, I've found that using a quick...
Multisite for multilingual website
Start with basics: install modules for meta tags and XML sitemaps, set proper alt text on images, and keep URLs clean. Backdrop SEO is mostly about structure and content quality, not tricks.

A topic for the dev meeting: jQuery UI 1.14.0 has a stable release.
There's already a pending 1.13.3 update, but we might want to consider 1.14 for the next Backdrop minor (1.29), the change would be too big for a patch release.
For example, we need to set a compatibility flag to true, which now defaults to false. Files have been removed, and other things.
Update to latest 1.13: https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6550
Update to 1.14: https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6677
This core bug (deprecated "dialogClass" usage) now gets more important: https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6184
But we get things working with 1.14, it seems. Even without fixing all dialogClass issues. So it's a matter of decision, which jQuery UI will go in next, I guess.
Proposed topic for User Group meeting if it is needed - configuring CK5 editor with allowed tags/attributes, comparing configuration of the CK Editor toolbar and allowed tags, comparing D7/D10/Backdrop configuration
Just to confirm I understand, does this mean that CK5 also has HTML filtering and proposing the ability to compare the Backdrop PHP filtering rules to CK5's?
I am not sure how Backdrop PHP filtering works. In D7 we had more separation between modules that control Text formats and Filters and I was able to limit both tags (<p>) and attributes ( <p class="summary caption text-align-left text-align-center text-align-right text-align-justify"> ).
Here is link for related issue https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/6100
