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 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).
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/
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
