By default I tend to see a lot of German and Greek posts in amongst the English ones.

It might be nice to have an option where the app can translate these in the default view, either on demand or automatically. (perhaps cached on the server to save CPU time?)

Even if it’s just the post title, that could be interesting.

    FWIW Voyager doesn’t have a server, there is no backend at all. Just you and your lemmy instance. ;)

      Idk how things work but can there be a way to add your libretranslate instance in settings and clicking on the translate button would translate from there?

      I tried bluesky today and it had a translate button which would forward it to translate.google.com and It opened translate popup from translateyou app because I had it open default links of translate. Is this possible?

        Possibly, but I don’t think I would ever link directly to Google in app haha. Maybe libretranslate though?

        iOS also has a built in translate tool, so that at least is much more straightforward.
