Looking forward to Firefox local translations, my French isn't good enough

Edit: Also when they add all extensions, Imgur doesn't load on mobile for me

Isn't local translation already a thing? I had it for a while already

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

oh are you guys using the extension, I just got it

I think the news article I saw recently was talking about it being built in?

Probably. I installed it then forgot about it, didn't have the need to remember it was an extension anyway.

It becoming built-in is perfect.

You can enable the built-in feature in about:config with browser.translations.enable

Imgur is spyware crap, since time I use FileCoffee, way better (host and share image, multimedia, videos, documents, PDF, presentations, text, apps, 100% free, encrypted, private, made in the EU), alternatively you can use Vgy.me (same, but only images, by default it delete the EXIF data, if exist).

Just to make you aware: Linguist is an add-on that allows you to change its settings to use the Bergamaot offline translator, making it totally private.

FF local translations is already there in the stable releases. Just update!

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What version are you on? In particular I was hoping for a built in version on mobile since I can't get the extension like on Desktop

[–] pietervdvn@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah, I was talking about desktop. Afaik this is not yet on mobile.

I'm using Fennec BTW

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Ah understandable, thank you though
