Dear everyone.
If you post in more than one language, please remember to set the language of your post correctly. It's the only way the language translator works properly.
Many thanks.
Please consider boosting to raise awareness of this issue.

The landing page for our Mastodon instance burningboard.net has been translated to English as well. Does someone have a look and give me feedback about it? Would be highly appreciated!
Our immense gratitude to the Spanish translation team, with special shoutouts to @maciac and viiii (https://mirlo.space/viiii/releases), who have done some incredible work in not just translating Mirlo, but keeping everything up to date too. 🌍️🐦⬛

This is insanely high-quality.
I wanted to play around with its #Spanish translation capabilities and noticed it had Spanish from #costarica specifically. So I gave it as much #tico slang as could make sense and it got it incredibly well.
Obviously, #translation is an art, and I might’ve used slightly different wording, but an anglophone would absolutely get the sentiment from this translation.
It looks like I can’t post a picture on a quote-post, so I’ll reply here with the passage I used!

Hackathon this week 7-8 febuary
Hi everyone,
Thank you so much for the good vibe 😁
Here is the current list of tasks, i will update if there is new tasks, chat created. I will do my best to relay informations. So don’t be afraid to add news ideas 😁
Got a idea ? Write it up in comment 😍👍
As you know, we purposed you an hackathon for the fediverse. Two days is short, you may not have free time. Its goal is not speed up development and create lousy code and documentation. No.
The main idea is to form some team and contribute together on some project at the beginning of each month : wiki, translation, documentation, coding…
I hope that it will turn out as a recurring event later. 😁
Why ? I believe it will attract new users, contributors to the fediverse, and i hope news people will join us…and make free software shine. I believe in free software, i believe its 4 freedoms can improve our democracy and protect users rights.
Let’s go back to the hackathon. Some may prefer a slow spaced development, they are right, it is a rock solid development. Its goal is not to replace its current development. we want to invite new people being part of the fediverse, guide them, explain them how they can contribute and slowly being part of the free software movement.
There is plenty way to contribute and i hope it will invite news contributors if we organize a recurring event. 😁
The fediverse is organic and follow your need. So don’t be afraid to voice your need, report bug, create poster…
so, maybe you will join us ? Is there something you want to do ? :)

The future of translation. This is Microsoft Translator's own page, and they've decided to machine translate it (and a bunch of linked pages) to Finnish. The result is something to behold. Nearly all compound words are separated, it's full of strange idioms, faulty inflections and broken grammar. Some links in the footer: Download center -> "Center of Espoo" (city in FI); Manage cookies -> "Uber-cookies"; ??? -> "Isn't".
Lepää rauhassa, suomen kieli. Teknologiajätit ovat nimittäin tulossa: https://www.microsoft.com/fi-fi/translator/
> Microsoft Translatorin kone käännös palvelu
> Breaking kieli muuri kotona, töissä, missä tarvitset sitä

another page from 非人哉 "Inhuman!" that amused me because I'm a Halloween stan:
"Happy Halloween! The office is holding a festive little pumpkin carving contest. Here you go."
"H-HALLOWEEN?! Sir, did you forget we're all CHINESE spirits? You expect us to know what to do with a pumpkin?! Do we look like vampires and werewolves to you?!"
"... When did you guys learn how to do that?"
