Why HN links it
One HN commenter links a post on Mastodon's built-in translation options, as an example of translation that could make AI-translated replies acceptable. The comments don't judge the writing itself.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
