I am also grateful of them not scrapping common voice.
- _trampeltier 4y agoAlso important, because now it seems at least in germany, on Google translate, there is the translate website button missing. From Switzerland I saw the button lately when I tryed. I don't know if it is because go to cencored (russian) sites. My company blocks google translate anyway, probably because of the same reason.
- croes 4y agoAre you sure? Under Google Übersetzer I see three button: Text, Dokumente, Websites
- _trampeltier 4y agoYes, at least last week. The Internet from work is routed to Germany (Paderborn). Last week the third button "Websites" was missing. From home in switzerland the button was there. Also if you entered "translate website" Google sugested Yandex on second place ..

- Shadonototra 4y agoit's not their project, all they did was to write a form in JS the whole project is a EU funded one, all done in the university of Edinburgh https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/825303 https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/825303 you giving full credit to Mozilla is dishonest, to say the least it aligns to their past projects, including using Mullvad and slapping a Mozilla sticker on top of it to claim it as their own also it is super funny to read this: > H2020-EU.2.1.1. - INDUSTRIAL LEADERSHIP - Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies - Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) MAIN PROGRAMME little do they know, EU never learn
- stuartd 4y agoAll they did was ‘write a form in JS’??? > Our solution to that was to develop a high-level API around the machine translation engine, port it to WebAssembly, and optimize the operations for matrix multiplication to run efficiently on CPUs.
- coding123 4y agoIn the long run, I am a super huge fan of Mozilla and Firefox. I am using it right now. After a 10 year stint of using Chrome exclusively I now use Firefox as my main driver. Unfortunately I still need to keep chrome around for weird situations where the website developer only tested in Chrome (Yes this still exists. A shopping cart in a popular website - cough Home Depot cough cough - that recently failed me in Firefox worked in Chrome. I haven't tried in a couple weeks hopefully that is fixed.)
