Been using a extension for this which unfortunately has to use Google as a backend. Happy to see Mozilla doing this and I cannot wait to have this feature fully implemented
I’ve been using the Firefox Translations extension that this is probably building on. Also runs entirely in the client.
Having this built into the browser is going to be a great selling point.
No Japanese :(
No Mandarin/Chinese … Sad…
I just want a LibreTranslate add-on that I can point to my own server. Surprised that doesn’t already exist.
Edit: Oh, it does. Just way down in the search results: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libretranslateclient/
I have been using Linguist, which is an open source extension that works very well, you can translate a specific text selection or the whole text, and it even has an offline translator (using the Bergamot project).
That’s a good point. I’m a little concerned about their future finances given most of their money comes from google search being set to default.
If Mozilla ever falls, it fucking jover
I fear that day

Google keeps FF afloat?
They pay a lot of money to be the default search engine. It’s a compromise.
Ohh I see, had no idea. That does seem like a bit of a conflict.
It’s where the majority of Mozilla’s funding comes from. Last I checked, the Google deal was responsible for something like 85% of their income.

😬 that’s a little terrifying. Especially with the web drm bs now

They get something like $500 million annually from Google. They have decently-sized cash reserves, but they’d have a LOT of trouble if Google ever cancel that deal.
