What is really missing is a "Translate" button under non-english posts.

Who do you give the message for the translation? Big G? Babel?

It's a matter of time when free self-hosted neural networks trained for translation will appear.

Basically a real translation require a conscious machine or at least one closely resembling it.

Translating some common words would at least tell me which toots might be interesting enough to manually feed to a state of the art translator.

I agree that perfect translation might require GAI, but don't let perfect be the enemy of good. An AI just needs to be better than existing approaches to be somewhat useful.
