Good news about page translation, Firefox is adding it, and it's all done locally too, no phoning home to their or somebody else's translation servers.

I wonder if there's an extension for Chromecast support? Might be worth looking into

    Till then there is this open source extension which provides the same functionality including local offline translation

    Sadly, no, there is no chromecast extension (which I am aware of).

    Actually there is one, but it's not very good if I'm being honest ( but workable).

    I'm kind of surprised that no open source project of renown has ever decided to implement that on Firefox well.

    Just search for it from within Firefox, from the mods tab. That's how I found it the first time.
