HunchBluntley: Not in Firefox, it doesn't. Meanwhile, Firefox's own built-in translation works, but it's a VERY rough translation -- for me, pretty much unreadably so.
At first I got a 404 error, even with the original (untranslated) page. It only worked after I accepted stuff in the usual data protection / privacy popup *and* did a full reload of the page.

It wasn't that the page didn't load, it just failed to get translated. But I should've thought to check my script blocker for possibly Google-Translate-relevant domains that I needed to allow; doing this let the process work for me. XD (In my defense, these days, I almost exclusively use Google Translate on its own site to translate individual paragraphs and passages, not entire third-party webpages.)

Brief summary of the article above from Fark-9191932 here - https://gameworldobserver.com/2024/12/20/gog-layoffs-staff-turnover-poor-management-report

Seems to me this Gołębiewski fellow has no idea what he's doing. How did he climb the corporate ladder so fast if GOG was never really profitable after he joined besides in 2017 (9.4% net profit, W3 + Gwent sales) and in 2020 (6.0% net profit, CP77 release).

Thanks for the link .

Sad to read about the lay off 20-30 employees.

Thanks for sharing.
I wonder if the comment 'the current business model is likely running out of steam' is a pun on the market leader who never seem to be running out of it?

The Q3 results in the next story below that one were a bit grim (GOG made a loss) but I'm sure that's already been discussed elsewhere. Let's hope The Witcher IV, Cyberpunk (2088?) and Hadar (a new IP) are all big hits and sell a lot through GOG.
