Description

Similar to how twitter / amazon shows a translate button on posts and comments, this feature could be implemented in our moderation dashboards to make it easier to moderate message from other languages.

Questions:

  • what services are there to solve this problem?
  • Cost?

Research direction
Investigate existing moderation dashboard components in the frontend codebase (likely in the website/ directory). Research translation APIs like Google Translate, DeepL, or Azure Translator. Determine cost and integration feasibility. Then implement a translate button that sends message text to the chosen API and displays translated text.
