Summary0006229: enable machine translation
DescriptionI think it would be useful to enable MT in Weblate, as at least for me such MT translations usually give a good starting point from which one can refine grammar and choice of words:
https://docs.weblate.org/en/latest/admin/machine.html

At our (low) translation rates, I believe GoogleTranslate and MyMemory should both be effectively free (not sure about some of the others from the list). Google requires creating an account, MyMemory simply needs us to provide a contact address (in case of excessive use/API troubles). Plus it's Google. So for now, I'd suggest we enable the MyMemory service. I don't see a data protection issue here, as *these* strings are obviously fully public _and_ the requests are made not from the user's browser but by Weblate, so there is also no real tracking potential.
TagsNo tags attached.
