@bodil@social.treehouse.systems For the local translation API point, there's a Mozilla Standards Position thread ongoing in https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/1015 on the Translator API. Your voice about wanting such an API would be very welcome. Mozilla have an alternative proposal up on https://github.com/mozilla/explainers/blob/main/translation.md, but I think this approach is not meeting the user demands for an imperative translation API, in contrast to the Translator API. (Full disclosure in case it wasn't clear: I work on the Chrome team at Google.)

@tomayac@toot.cafe Oh, this is very interesting. I'm aware of the Translator API already but not that Mozilla was dragging its heels on it.
