In-line translation features for non-English communities (in my case) would be very helpful and would exceed Reddit functionality, which is something I think Lemmy should strive toward

Integration with DeepL API like Misskey would be cool!

While we are speaking of it, please let users choose between languages (original and target) independently of system locale.

Sometimes I encounter social media posts auto translated (probably through Google translate) but languages detection is messed up. And the best part is there isn't a menu to choose.

Yes this would be amazing!

This should really be implemented at either the browser or lemmy-ui/app level, not in the back end.
