It is. But the big plus is it’s offline translation, without sending data through network (for privacy concerns and for quick operation). Edit: Oh, just got what you meant. The article title is not descriptive enough. I agree.
Purposefully not descriptive enough. People do it on the R site too even though there’s no real benefit or way to see that you’re getting people to click through.
I like it a lot. The fact that it translates entirely on my machine, without revealing to some corporation what I’m translating, is indeed a killer feature.
(Now if only we could link headlines that state the key information instead of baiting people into clicks.)
Yeah, my big corporation won’t let us use 3rd party big corporations for translations, only our own tool. I assume we know the kind of shit we use the data for, and assume others are just as bad.
The feature is translation. Just say that, OMGUbuntu.

I swear, we need a version of r/savedyouaclick on Lemmy at some point.
Also, I thought this feature was already released? I’ve been using it for the better half of this year.

Thank you, was hoping there was a “very tl;dr” in the comments.
