Putting it mildly
"Por no decir algo peor" is an option to translate "putting it mildly".
Does anyone have a better translation? Google Translator gives "ponerlo suavemente", which seems to me a bit too literal, although it may work sometimes. Maybe "decirlo sin exagerar", "decirlo con tacto" are options. Any other ideas?

I would say something like: Estás excesivamente bondadoso./ o decirlo con damasiada bondad

Thank you, Poli and Chileno. These options are usable.
