Me: "I want to learn German."
Them: "Why would you do that? Don't bother!"
Me: "Because I spend half my time on the Fediverse clicking on the 'Translate' button."
I can't help it if so many of the awesome accounts I follow are in German. And I want to be able to understand their messages without clicking on 'Translate' 50+ times a day. Plus this way I would understand / could attend ALL the talks at Berlin #FediDay.
I'm putting this here so that people hold me accountable 😅🤗
@_elena@mastodon.social as I scrolled up from the previous post (in German), I thought it would be great to have a simpler client side translate option.
Swipe, double tap (pick your gesture).
The... Translate is too buried.
Would be cool to have a text to speech option too. Maybe that way you could learn the language and technical jargon in situ.
