Why always when I use this app, it starts downloading so many .zip files without my permission. The app always waste a lot of my mobile data 🥵. (I'm sorry for my English)

Translation models. Each pair of languages is downloaded on demand, depending on how many languages you see in your feed. You can use the fdroid version to avoid these downloads.

Translations should be opt in from the settings tab sir

No, the idea is to not recreate the kind of language silos we saw on Twitter, where we never see another language. Automatic translations are incredibly successful getting us out of our own bubbles.

I appreciate the notion but you as the dev shouldn’t control the experience of all your users, that’s similar to locking them down and they will just look for a different client. For example I am using Damus on iOS currently and have auto translations off, purely because translations aren’t always accurate and sometimes they translate phrases that were already in English, I like tapping a note and pressing translate manually, but having the button there. I assume there will be other users like me, if you don’t like the idea of opt in then you should at least have it opt out with a prompt when the first translated text shows up for example, but you shouldn’t just think “this is how I would like it so this is how I will do it”. No negativity by the way just my 2 sats, you’re the dev and it’s ur app after all :) thanks for all the work you do sir🫡

But there are ways to opt out. I don't know what makes you assume there isn't. You can disable them directly on the translated message. Or, like I said, use the fdroid version which doesn't even have the translation dependency baked in.

Just as you give the translation option on Twitter you can give the option to change to the desired language, it is your choice.

The default translation is very simple but reduces a very noticeable friction.

#Nostr

#Amethyst

#Hispano

Dontvuse the Google playvstore version. Easy.. I have the fdriod version with no translation. Amethyst is the best client hands down. Just ask us here on #nostr

I have to admit, I thought it can't work, and it turned out surprisingly good for an MVP.

Agree. Translations are ok for now. Let's hope those models keep improving so we get closer and closer to real speech. 🚀

Have you seen Meta’s SeemlessM4T?

It always shows me an error page. Also I've tried so many times with VPN and without it
