What I found interesting is that “translate tweet” button doesn’t appear unless you are signed in. Why cannot I read news from all over the world unless I’m signed in? Why do users have to sign in to read translated tweets in real time?




Does Twitter have to pay to use Google or MS's translate API?


I have no idea but twitter uses google translate API


Apparently it costs money. https://cloud.google.com/translate/pricing


Now it makes sense!

Thanks a lot


And Tweetdeck uses Microsoft's API.
