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?

There should be more on https://alternativeto.net/ when you search “DeepL” for alternatives
Since many are listed here but I am sure there are more
I use the FluentRead browser extension with a locally-hosted LLM.
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)
This immediately asks for an account. Not great honestly…
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.

Humans. Not a joke. Computers can generate a best guess, but they don’t hold a candle to human understanding and expression
That’s why I employ a staff of a few dozen multilingual interpreters to follow me to the supermarket to translate the ingredient labels in the import isle.
You joke but for the visually impaired that is absolutely a service in demand. Check out Be My Eyes if you want to volunteer
