When I attempt to translate douyin.com from Chinese to English with the Google Translate browser extension by clicking "Translate Page", nothing happens. How do I fix this?

From Quora: "Douyin (抖音) is intended for the Chinese market and was not designed for an international audience, though there are foreigners and foreign companies that have accounts on Douyin. There is currently no method to change the language of Douyin into English."

Since the site appears to be implemented as graphic files, rather than in Chinese characters, you can translate it, albeit slowly:

  1. Take a screenshot of a page or portion of a page.

  1. Submit the screenshot to optical character recognition (OCR), such as EasyScreenOCR or an alternative.

  2. Now take the text, in Chinese, and submit it to a translation program, such as Google Translate:
