Hi everyone! I made a translator bot that translates statuses it's mentioned in.

To use it, mention @translator ([email protected]) in your status, followed by the two-letter code for the language you want to translate to (e.g. "ja" for Japanese) (full list of possible codes here: https://christopher.su/projects/translator/). It uses English if no language is given.

Give it a try and toot me your suggestions and comments!

@translator ja

@cs I think this should be integrated into the UI, honestly. I don't want to toot something to get a translation and I *really* love "translate this"-buttons in other webapps :)

@Merovius You can use a translation browser extension for that! Problem with integrating it in the UI and translating lots of toots is programmatic translation is not cheap :(
