I developed a small proxy service, that translates LibreTranslate API calls into Mozhi API calls.

The intent was to use
Mozhi as translation service for my Sharkey instance. Why: Because in my opinion Mozhi gives better results, especially when configuring the DuckDuckGo engine.

There is a
description on how-to enable the translation service for Sharkey with docker compose. A pre-built docker image for AMD64 is available.

Git repository.

I wrote a post👆in German yesterday that ended with:
"What is currently happening in Gaza is completely unacceptable and has not served anyone's legitimate security interests in a long time."

Today, I clicked on the English translation &found that - besides the usual jibberish often produced by #LibreTranslate - , it had omitted the "not" at the end, thus turning the original statement into its complete opposite.

At this quality level, this feature isn't just bad, but outright dangerous.

Concerning our translation server using #LibreTranslate at translate.fedilab.app we are doing our best to keep it available for everyone (Fedilab but also small instances or personal projects).
Our position requires us to be more careful with abuses (especially bots).
That's why sometimes you can notice some downtimes, but we still work on appropriate actions with the goal that it remains a useful service for everyone and not only for Fedilab.

translate.fedilab.appLibreTranslate - Free and Open Source Machine Translation APIFree and Open Source Machine Translation API. Free to download, offline capable and easy to setup. Run your own API server in just a few minutes.

OK so LibreTranslate is part of the mastodon instance I'm on.

I just saw a post in Chinese:

在贵州被虫子咬了眼皮,上次这么惨还是幼儿园。

LibreTranslate gave this:
In your State, the puppet was pested, and last was a kindergarten.

DeepL gave this:
I got bitten by an insect on my eyelid in Guizhou. The last time I had such a bad experience was in kindergarten.

I suspect that of the two, DeepL is the more accurte haha

L'expression "Intelligence artificielle" n'a été publiée dans cette langue cible que sur papier, à ce jour.

Du coup voici le dernier (27500 pas) incluant cette expression: tu peux dire "prems".

La particularité de celui-ci, c'est que j'ai fait de la "traduction inversée" pour près de 57000 sous-titres de films, d'où l'appellation OS : OpenSubtitles.

Set up LibreTranslate for my Mastodon instance. It was pretty quick and easy with the only difficulty being the short wait when it downloads the initial data for the various languages. Quite happy with it. A simple Translate link appears under properly tagged posts that I just click on. Cool beans and does not rely on any sort of external service. Two thumbs way up. #mastoadmin #mastodon #libretranslate
