PieFed now integrates with Libretranslate (FOSS self-hosted translation service) to provide translation functionality.

I would like the translation button to appear also when I've just posted in the same language. For example, my Ukrainian is reasonably okay, but I don't read the cyrillic script as fast the latin on, which means it's often more efficient to just copypaste the text to DeepL to translate it.

But if I then write a short answer to any comment, I lose the right to translate the texts? (Of course, since my instance currently only allows me to mark "English" as the comment's language, this doesn't have any real effect on me anyway...)
