Greetings, Disrooters! XD

I recently made a post on Fedisroot and mentioned a translator I've been using called, deepl.com. @craudio, on Fedisroot, replied and mentioned LibreTranslate as being another option.

https://libretranslate.com/

I too a brief look at it and found it is a Free and Open Source Machine Translation API.

https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate

I feel hosting an instance of this may be of benefit to Disroot, itself, and Disrooters, alike. I, certainly, wouldn't want to suggest adding another service requiring immense time and effort to launch and maintain (like Hubzilla appears to have been), but I believe it may be worth looking into as a possible service that could be added. I, for one, would certainly incorporate it into my translation needs use.

Thank you for any consideration.

Yes we are aware of this service. Something some of of were thinking of hosting but we havent discuss it as a team yet because we are still migrating to new server setup. We are almost there though.

Alright, so finally time to take a decision about this :)

I personally agree to provide this new service. It doesn't seem too complicate to deploy, and I don't see really cons about having it.

My apologies about the image removals in my post; I did some cleaning on PostImage.

I do agree too. I use it locally on my machine since some months ago and it works pretty fine. It would be a good feature to add.
