I generally truly love using @firefox This new feature of intrusively suggesting to translate shit is beyond me though. Just shove off with that crap and ask me to opt IN rather than make me search how to opt out.
That popup is intrusive and I hate firefox for it.

I think you can disable it in add-ons.

@PlasticFrog in about: config
Thing is, I disabled it, received an update and it was enabled again.

Then disable it again, perhaps restart, restart in safe mode. Can’t you remove it altogether? Like with other add-ons? And in about:config?

@PlasticFrog it's not an add on, it's a new feature. Let's see if this time it remains disabled ;)

Oh apologies, but you can in general set some hard changes in the about:config section of firefox.

But hope it’s sorted for you now. :-)
