I swear, the sheer amount of dumb shit I read in Lemmy makes me think this place is a true Reddit replacement. Even in its worst aspects.

Have you ever tried to translate anything more complex than a single paragraph? No, you didn’t, otherwise you wouldn’t be assuming “tech iz replacin translturz lmao”. Do it. By machine and then by hand. Then compare both things; even a complete amateur can pull out something way better than any machine translator does, provided the amateur in question is proficient in both source and target languages.
