Before degoogling I was able to have a (slow) conversation with people I don't share a language with. I could speak into my phone and it could give out speech in their language.

Is there any chance to set this up without using Google apps or MicroG? I do have RHVoice installed but don't know how to proceed from here. Thanks for any and all advice!

Edit: Thank you for the suggestions! A combination of Deepl and the OpenAI Whisper Keyboard works for me.

deepl.com is amazing. For in-browser translations I use Firefox Translations: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-translations

Idk if the speaking works but DeepL is good.

lingva.ml used to work great, but it has been down for quite a while now

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it went down around the same time the Malta government claiming .ml sites (lemmy.ml was down around thrn as well). Thankfully Lingva has other instances as well! https://github.com/TheDavidDelta/lingva-translate

Oh dope! I knew it had something to do with the TLD. Cool thing there's other instances as well! Thanks for sharing the link
