I really like the implemented 'translate' button in snaps, but would it be possible to automatically translate the snaps for me when it detects a non-english snap. It would save me a couple of clicks and precious time 😂
Not possible for a couple technical/cost related reasons:
Translation takes time, so the snap will be not visible for a couple seconds
It's not free, so we prefer to avoid additional costs if the user is not really interested but just stumbled randomly on the snap
I didn't know this wasn't a free service. Then I understand it completely. Thanks for the clarification.
I just realized that some people might want to do the translation the other way around. Maybe it could be a default setting in your profile or something.
I don't know how difficult this would be to implement though.
I've thought about that too. It would make a big difference. Maybe some sort of AI could do an automatic translation depending on profile setting as you suggest. Just saw asgarth's response so doesn't look like this will hapen anytime soon.
That would be a fantastic update!
I see the answer already below, but I liked what you were asking about, only because when I scroll, I skip the ones in languages I don't speak or read. I mean that in the kindest way, but that's the way it is.
That's indeed why I asked it.
I don't know why people posr in their own language outside their community.
They would get more engagement in English
