What's the problem?

I love the work you do, but the translations are just terrible. It often doesn't know what language the content is and guesses, then the translations themselves are very low quality

Yeah, we have no fix for that yet. The AI we use must run on the phone and the current model is quite outdated. To my knowledge, there are no replacements yet.

What if you give the option to use jumble's translation service for users that are OK with the privacy implications and with the cost?

Or have a way to disable translations altogether? Because I'd rather not have the feature than have it in this state personally

You can disable by language. Because even if they are not as good, a translation from say.. Arabic.. is always better than no translations.

In that case I would just plop it into kagi translate and have a really good translation

Whats kagi translate?

Its a translation tool developed by nostr:nprofile1qqsrgyzdaheuckfksqkgxz9r6qys72zh6j46f69hyzkv4a4j4vzfj6gppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0hudmam; works surprisingly well

Offline or online? Paid or free? Do they keep all the translated messages safe or can they sell them to AI operators and ad businesses? Lots of these services only exist to sell the data. Translating private DMs would be an issue.

Paid, online. Don't sell data, in fact that's a core part of their business model. As for DMs I'm not going to receive DMs in languages I don't speak, so personally it doesn't matter for me

Eu não falo uma palavra de português, mas o que você está lendo agora é uma tradução feita com o Kagi translate. Pelos meus testes limitados com as línguas que eu falo, esta tradução deve ser muito boa. O que você acha?

I don't doubt the translation is good. Many of these services offer amazing translations. Even Google themselves do. The question is always on the price and privacy of the request. After all, it's uncommon to see details on nostr that need to be protected
