Translating the page is pretty nice but when toggling Reader View the translation goes away and cannot be re-enabled from there. Please add the ability to translate the page while in reader view!

When I visited https://blog.duolingo.com/duolingo-101-how-to-learn-a-language-on-duolingo/ and selected their option to view the instructions in Spanish on the website, I then turned reading view on to minimize the ads/images. However, I was disappointed the reading pane brought the English version up. It would be more user-friendly to offer a translate on the reading pane. Particularly if the page I was viewing was already in Spanish, Reading Pane should pick up on that and display it in that language, or offer the option to translate the English version to a different language.

Reading View Translate

If you want to translate in the reading view in Firefox, this is not possible!
Would be ideal for accessibility!

You have to do it complicated, first translate the website and then into the reading view.
Only then can you have it read to you😉

There is also no control button to call up the translation!
