I'm trying to find an app for lemmy that can translate foreign languages for free. Can any one suggest me one?

Sync for Lemmy offers this via the Ultra subscription. It requires an external service, so it's something you have to pay for.

Not sure if any of the apps are mature enough to do that yet. But anyone who answers will need to know, iOS or Android?

You will probably have to find an app you like and then request that feature from the author(s).

I'm on Android and the apps I use is thunder and sync, I know sync has that feature but I don't like to pay just for a translator.

Why don't you just select the text and use Google translate?

I'll leave your post up, but please see rules #2 and 5 in the sidebar for future reference. Thank you! :)

What does this mean?

"2. NSFW communities are allowed on our instance, as long as they comply with the rest of our rules."

"5. No pornography featuring depictions of rape, sexual assault, or non-consensual violence."

He's referring to the community rules not the instance rules

[–] Byereddithellolemmy 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah, my mistake.

I'm new, thanks for letting me know!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

But also in general it's a good idea to play along with the site-wide lenmy.world rules as well. There is a link to the Instance Code Of Conduct in the sidebar. :)
