I'm trying to make the switch to Firefox, but I'm running into some issues. The main one being, I travel internationally a lot for work and rely heavily on chrome automatically translating every web page I visit. Is there a way to have this on both my desktop and mobile (android)? When I look at the available extensions there are like 15 available... Thankfully one of them is uBlock Origin

Firefox does now have built-in page translation that runs offline. While it's not the best one out there it only needs to connect to the internet once to download the translation data.

I know they recently put the feature in the desktop, did they dobit on mobile too tho?

FF doesn't do that I think. There are addons that u can use for it though.
