User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0
Steps to reproduce:
(I want to report an issue about the translation extension, sorry if I'm mistaken)
While browsing a german site (ex: https://kancha.de/en/pages/social-impact) the button in the toolbar to suggest to translate the content never appeared.
Header transmitted
GET /en/pages/social-impact HTTP/3
Host: kancha.de

Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br

DNT: 1
Actual results:
No button appeared in the url bar to translate the content.
Actually I found there is a menu entry in the hamburger button on the toolbar, but this is not convenient in the absence of key shortcut.
I've attach a screenshot of about:config filtered on string "translation" with only the keys modified
Expected results:
suggest to translate the page in the url bar

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Translation' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

I think I found the issue, I though the heuristic to detect foreign language was to parse the content of a page, but actually not ... so
according the url (https://kancha.de/en/pages/social-impact) the page is supposed to be in english (and it contains <html lang="en">) but the content is actually in german.
I can switch to the german version (which is actually the same content) using a button I did not notice, it brings me to https://kancha.de/de/pages/social-impact (with <html lang="de">) and this time the button actually appears.

This is similar to bug 1859081, but it appears as the opposite problem for you.
