Hello I am British and sadly I can only read English. When someone puts a message on in another language I can't read it. It would be good too translate the words like what social media does. Who agrees with me. This would also benefit users who don't speak or read English that well.

I guess that will be difficult to develop. A lot of browsers have translations options. Check that out.

I really like this idea mainly for messages, because it enables connections to spandex guys that you otherwise wouldn't have. I'm all in for this and put this in our backlog. any translation solution, in-house or API, can accumulate a lot of cost quickly. so this needs to be evaluated first.

It’s an extra step, but for me, I can click on the text and there is an option to Translate.

Highlight the non English text, right click, and you should get the option to translate it.

I have this problem a lot when users refuse to write English... But I'd like to expand that idea: How about you can set the languages it shall translate? Like, someone's writing in French and you want it in English, for example.

i run this site in Google Chrome on my computer....      if you  get a message that is say German or  French or  any other language,   Right click the mouse and select  Translate to English.... you can also  open Google Translate in another tab in your web browser     and copy and paste.        also  if you have a android smart phone   there is a app called Google Lens that can translate from any language to English.....   I hope this helps
