I was using DeepL, but it turns out that it's proprietary, and it's also been getting somewhat enshittified as of late. What do my fellow lemming use?

Apertus PublicAI is also capable to translate in a lot of lenguages, among other uses. Swiss made, privacy focused and FOSS. On eye level to the most advanced US AIs. It use the infrastructure of the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS)

Account is free, minimum data (nick and mail, if you want, use an disposable one), well, also Lemmy need an account like almost any other service you use. The account is not shared, but with account you can customize it with plug ins and for an API. Otherwise you can selfhost it, but than you don't have the power of the supercomputer from the swiss datacenter, the same used by the LHC of the CERN, but only the server you use to host it. It don't store previous chats if you don't want, otherwise only stored in your HD.
