Not surprising as Chrome has been getting more bloated all along. Then again, I personally use Vivaldi as Firefox doesn't have a built-in translator tool.
Vivaldi is chromium based, so it's pretty much chrome with a different UI.
Translator here. Beware of translation tools. It's fine for personal use and basic understanding but it's not up to the task for the translation of complex stuff or technical stuff. It's good at creating text that looks legit but can sometimes contain critical errors.
I once worked on a medical device and used machine translation to test it. The text was fine but some numbers were changed. This is a huge error.
It's weird that it's not built in but there is a Mozilla add-on for it to provide on-device translations https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/firefox-translations/
Built-in local translations are coming soon! Already available in nightly.
