It’s really interesting that none of the traditional social platform clients support full auto-translations. You can translate on an individual post basis by tapping a button but it’s less effective in encouraging cross-language conversations and their translation quality is generally poor. Damus fixes these problems on Nostr by implementing auto-translations and DeepL integration. Amethyst too (though it’s using Google ML Kit offline which doesn’t have as good quality translations, but works well enough). The level of global conversation unlocked here is wild. Hope to see this feature come to all Nostr clients.

Unlocking the the global conversation is key. It widens our audience immensely and allows us to communicate with people we otherwise wouldn't have easily been able to do so. 🤙🏻

This is a huge superpower. This was on the roadmap at Twitter. It will be a huge advantage for any clients that implement well and will truly create the global “public square.”

Agree 💯
1. Ensure that your list of preferred languages in iOS settings has the languages that you understand only fluently. 2. Go to Damus settings and select DeepL Free as your translation service. 3. Sign up for an API plan. It’ll KYC you (unfortunately) by asking for credit card but it won’t charge you. In return, you get a free API key. 4. Paste the API key into Damus settings. 5. The global fun begins!
Thanks. KYC is a no go though.

Go to setting. Translation. Choose DeepL. Choose free version. It requisition a API key. Tap get api key, it’ll lead you to the DeepL website. You need to sign up, and get a free API key.

More non-KYC translation options are coming to Damus.

#nostr is close enough to the moment when I will be able to post on my native language without gramma mistakes and you all will be able to read it on your side! Thanks for making this happen🫂
