Plamola's "OCR-Joplin-Notes" extension seems to require the "rest-uploader" from cerealkella, which requires Tesseract, and that itself seems to require Poppler.

- The latest Crow Translate version fixed that issue where the "translate selection" feature sometimes appears with no text. Huge improvement.

Is this a good way to set up a translation command line command?
I simply use Crow Translate, which I mainly use though the commandline. Has support for translations by Google, Yandex Bing, LibreTranslate and Lingva. Unfortunatly no Deepl support.

[crow-translate] "Translate selected text" pop up a textbox with no text, depending on how I selected it.
I reported this here.

Ported my translator application to mobile Linux
The application can translate and speak text using Google / Bing / Yandex. Also it can recognize text from screen using Tesseract library. Available for Windows, Desktop Linux and now for Mobile Linux thanks to Pinephone. The application was written in Qt Widgets (the application was originally developed for the desktop) and switching to QML would require rewriting all the code. So I decided to keep using widgets. It may not look as good as it does on Kirigami, but it is not depends on KDE and works fast. The source code is available on GitHub. You can download rpm (`aarch64`) or deb (`arm64`, apt uses different arch naming conventions) packages for PinePhone from the releases page. For ArchLinux / Manjaro users the app is available in AUR. Hope you like it :)
