But they killed the fox in their new logo :(
I've installed the add-on manually a few weeks ago and it works surprisingly well. It's now my go-to translation tool for websites.
Got Firefox 118 and the very first website I tested it on failed. Does not translate Russian. Seriously? smh, hope they add more languages in the near future because other browsers have had this feature for years.
Firefox rocks! (And subsequent forks of it)
But you can visit websites offline, you can self-host but then you already use a language that you understand.
I guess the offline it's mostly to advertise privacy. Or maybe can it translate pdf documents?
Not necessarily. A lot of great open source web based projects are written in languages that I sure as heck do not understand. This is a great feature for all those cases, as well as the other cases of offlined content.
More importantly, the reason this is being highlighted is because it means your website data isn’t going anywhere off your computer to be translated.
