[SUGGESTION] Disable the annoying firefox built-in translator

[guilhermerek]

Firefox new translator can be annoying opening sites in other idioms. Like opening github.

I think this should work to disable (in my case it worked):
user_pref("browser.translations.automaticallyPopup", false);
user_pref("browser.translations.enable", false);

I'm sorry for my English, it's not my primary language

I'd rather not. People complained for years that Firefox couldn't match Chrome without a Language Translation feature, and now they finally implemented it.

It's already in Peskyfox as an option. Just copy+paste, uncomment, and change to false:

Betterfox/Peskyfox.js

Lines 130 to 138 in 6657c83
