I don't _know_ many spoken or written languages -- Only dozens of "programming" / computer languages π Sorry my friend π€ -- One day we _might_ integrate with a nice privacy respecting translation service for Yarn pods, but so far such a thing doesn't _quite_ exist (yet?) π’

@prologic LibreTranslate? Might be something that can be added as an optional feature. Display a βtranslateβ button on each yarn if enabled. Tap on it to have it translated to your selected language set in settings?
@ullarah yeah LIbreTranslate is the way to go, unfortunately it's operationally hard to stand up and I'm not willing to put the effort in right now. It's also written in Python so it comes with all the downsides of using that language π
-- I _believe_ @jlj has a locally running instance in his infra, so one day when I can be bothered, I might have a proper go at standing it up and seeing if we can't integrate with it's API(s) π

@prologic I was. Couldn't get it migrated, when I was moving everything over to Portainer / Docker, and then couldn't even restore the original set-up. π
Tbh, it was pretty useless, on my kit: it'd timeout on anything but the simplest translations. I'm still really hopeful about the project overall, but I've abandoned self-hosting it, at least for now.
@jlj Ahhhh that's a damn crying shame really π’ Very likely (_unfounded, but based on experience_) it's likely suffering from being written by Research/Academic-types that aren't actually that good at writing Software or any good at Operations (SRE) -- Perhaps someone needs to come along and take what they've done and take it to the next level π€ From my early research into how it works, it's based on some pretty solid machine learning models π
