Not if you’re using it offline, but yea no way to prove its actually offline. We need some AI model that can be stored and run locally for translation… it’s only a matter of time

This is basically what you’re asking for. The tradeoff is that we add a dependency to Google, and requires storing translation models offline on disk and memory which can take a good amount of space. This is also what Amethyst does on Android. I’m happy to explore this translation approach as an option for Damus.

I think this would be great, but as an additional in-app download to pull down the model

I use Amethyst. It automatically translates from all languages. But it is not perfect.
