Project mention: Bitwarden introduces mandatory 2FA for new devices | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-01-28
The new extension is a lagfest. There's a noticeable 2s latency to every action now. I don't know how something like this makes it to GA. Long ticket: https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/12286

linguist
Translate web pages, highlighted text, Netflix subtitles, private messages, speak the translated text, and save important translations to your personal dictionary to learn words even offline (by translate-tools)
As maintainer of https://linguister.io/, should I start work on polyfill for that API?
If this API will be implemented in next few years, there will be browsers who hold up the world in progress.
Linguist have enough many users, so we could expose this API for client side code, and users with browsers where Translation API is not implemented yet, could install Linguist and sites who uses Translation API would works fine. Translation API calls would proxy by Linguist and preferred translator module would be used.
Any thoughts about it?
