But I also tested it for the Google 'Translate' add-on on https://www.rappi.com.co/ and it translates the page to English OK.

It is really tiresome to explain you every detail you don't understand.
Let me try a different approach.





Which one is google translate and which one is chromium build in functionality ?

Extra is an Arch repository, so sad to say but sometimes dependencies mismatch do happen (libicu is in Artix repos, Chromium is in Arch repositories, and these are updated independently)

Upper one is Chromium, lower one is through Google Translate. Yeah, there is a difference, using a Google service on a Chromium fork explicitly made to be Google-free probably won't work very well, it is a workaround for a temporary problem (as this should be fixed by the rebuild)

My whole system got bricked because of  `icu` ... Had to downgrade icu using chroot..

May I suggest downgrade [AUR] script? It is on the AUR, so be careful and use it at your own risk, but IMHO often it is handy

Now things mostly work but other things are broken (libreoffice, qt5-base etc..)
What is there to do? From what i read it's a common occurrence for `icu` to break?

Can you check if the software has been installed from Arch's or Artix's repositories? I've been able to reduce issues like this on my machine since I switched packages available in both distros to Artix repositories (I had installed a lot of packages from Arch even though they were also available from Artix)
