Is it possible to have translation on Toot.Wales? Maybe it's already there, but I can't see how to enable it. Thanks for any help. @jaz

@RHD @tridral we have two options, but neither include Cymraeg and both would add cost. It also requires that the the toot language is correctly set when posting.

Option 1 (LibreTranslate) includes Arabic, Azerbaijani, Catalan, Chinese, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian

@jaz @RHD @tridral Some upvotes for Welsh at github.com/argosopentech/argos could see it trickle into LibreTranslate. If they need corpora, they just need to ask.

@ceri @jaz @RHD Many thanks to everyone who has replied. I would love to see Welsh included among the translations.

@tridral @jaz yes I was thinking of Welsh sorry!

@RHD @tridral I thought that might be the case. I'd love to explore ways to advance this.

@jaz @RHD @tridral some 3rd party apps already have this integrated - on Ivory you’re a click away from GoogleTranslate for every post
