Firefox has translation now, too, on both mobile and desktop.
And you can optionally add the Google Translate extension to desktop Firefox if you want. (It really is convenient, isn't it?)
And you can always just plug in the URL of whatever page you're trying to translate directly into https://translate.google.com/.
Safari also has it built in. This person is just saying shit to say shit I guess.
AFAIK the built-in translator doesn't support Japanese, which is 99% of translation I need and the extension (which is what is was trying to use before) either requires you to select the text that you want to translate one-by-one or run the whole page through translate.google.com, which doesn't work with any page that requires an account to access or triggers ddos protection on some others.
Yeah, I think Firefox's translation feature is technically still in beta.
