       I've made great progress with banning Google from my life but it's only recently that I discovered a alternative to Google Translate. It's Apertium. It's pretty good although admittedly not so good as Google Translate because it lacks many common language pairs. In fact it seems very Spanish/Catalan oriented. Nevertheless I recommend using it when possible since their appears to be nothing FLOSS out there that does the same.

       @ericbuijs Cool! Didn't know that existed. I usually use DeepL Translator: https://www.deepl.com/translatorNot FOSS though, but also not Google, so still somewhat better.

       @Matter @ericbuijs because I don't need the service often, I constantly forget what deepl is called.Every time: damn... what is that non-google translation website called...🤔

       @ericbuijsApertium is very cool. Maintained by a bunch of linguists. My understanding is that Apertium is also a bit qualitatively different.. being more rules based.Also, Apertium, a FLOSS project, has been supported by Google summer of code. Perhaps someone can give some insight on that?Also check out Tatoeba.orgNot a translator. Just single sentence- sentence database.
