I struggled so long with having to use Chrome for translations on Android until I found out that my favourite translating extension works with mobile Firefox just perfectly. See [3] on how to install it in Firefox Beta (maybe this method or even the extension itself is already available in Firefox Release).

I use Translate Web Pages daily. https://github.com/FilipePS/Traduzir-paginas-web

Translation by Google/Yandex already worked smoothly in Firefox. The reason this post is neat is because the translation is done offline. Regular cloud translation: https://github.com/FilipePS/Traduzir-paginas-web

Try this: https://github.com/FilipePS/Traduzir-paginas-web IMO It's even better than the built-in translation of Chrome

In comments on forums, Twitter, Telegram, and many other text based services, I've seen a lot of requests/demands for translations of Ukrainian and Russian language content. There's a Mozilla Firefox add-on "Translate Web Pages" by Filipe Ps [0] available on Github [1] I've been using since the beginning of hostilities to automatically translate, and check existing English translations, of Ukrainian news web-sites, Twitter threads, etc. Originally the Yandex engine worked but lately seems to be less useful - not sure if that is due to some interference on the Yandex side for Ukrainian translation or a side-effect of the sites I read. The Google engine continues to work reasonably. The result sometimes needing a little mental gymnastics to help decode into a colloquial style. Here's a few of the Ukrainian language news and mapping web site

Thanks! That works great. Like the parent, easy access to autotranslation is a reason I sometimes reach for a non-Firefox browser. It really ought be a feature shipped with Firefox; without it most of the web is effectively inaccessible. The plugin relies on Google and Yandex for translations. Mozilla doesn't seem to have a problem with relying on or providing proprietary services (for better or worse) so that shouldn't be an obstacle, though I'd love to see an open source translation service replace them eventually -- maybe LibreTranslate https://github.com/FilipePS/Traduzir-paginas-web/issues/278

The popular Translate Web Pages addon[0] was recently updated to silently send all content that is hovered over to Google Translate or Yandex, by default. Needless to say, a huge breach of trust considering how much text you might hover over in your browser. Previously, you would need to click the addon icon to enable it for specific web pages. Here is the GitHub issue tracking the issue: https://github.com/FilipePS/Traduzir-paginas-web/issues/109 [0] https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/traduzir-paginas-web/
