Yes, Linguist use Bergamot translator that is embedded in Firefox. But translation in Firefox in beta stage, it does not have a lot of features and does not support a lot of languages yet. Linguist is a full featured translator that support a lot of translation modules and even custom translators provided by users. So Firefox translation is just a subset of features from Linguist, like Firefox ads protection is just a small subset of features from uBlock Origin.
But Firefox translator are technological breakthrough anyway, so we appreciate it.
Interesting, didnt know that.
It is also blazingly fast and doesnt have the annoying GUI popup on mobile.
