Feature suggest : Switch to DeppL API translation for translation to the selected text

Post by Mr_Electro84 »

Hello,

I would like to propose you a feature regarding the translation to the selected text

As you know, the translation to selected text works with the Google Translate API. But I would like to propose you an alternative that you might like!

It is DeepL, a German translation service, it allows to translate more than 20 different languages (this is nothing compared to Google Translate which has many more), but it will translate each sentence and paragraph according to the context and meaning of the latter.

And the little extra in all this is that the paid version respects privacy when translating. It seems to me that privacy is one of the features of Slimjet

They have an API available here :
https://www.deepl.com/pro-api

And the rates are relatively affordable (for the developer)

In summary, DeppL is a powerful and privacy-friendly translation service (for the paid version), and the API (also privacy-friendly in the paid version) is relatively affordable

For those who want to test DeppL it's here : https://www.deepl.com/

Thank you for reading this message
