User Reviews
Almost perfect - needs a feature to translate any marked text in a page via context menu for complete perfection, but by the time anyone reads this review, that feature will probably have been added.
Finally a way to take advantage of arbitrary LLMs (including translategemma) for purely device-local translation. Firefox's built-in local translation is nice, but the quality is limited by the wide range of devices it needs to run on.
This lets you use much beefier LLMs, allowing for high-quality translations straight into your browser tab.

The extension works great. Initially, after the first installation, I kept getting messages on every page saying there was no connection to the page. I'm not sure what I fixed later on. The only thing I did was install the Translate Gem for the model and changed the output settings, removing the JSON format. I don't know if that helped or if it just started working at some point. In any case, everything is working perfectly now. Thank you.

Is Local LLM Translator Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Local LLM Translator requires very minimum permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
- Low Request access to the following domains: localhost
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Local LLM Translator is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
