Just thought some of you may be interested in knowing since you gave up on clicking the translate button since it's done nothing for months. 

The translate button for Thai is working again on both Facebook and Instagram!

As some people in comments have said it's not working for them yet, I'm assuming the feature is rolling out like many times features are added. So if it doesn't work for you yet, it should over the next few days.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The translation feature for Thai is reportedly working again on both Facebook and Instagram, after being nonfunctional for several months. Users have commented on their experiences, with some stating it is already operational while others are still waiting for the feature to be available on their devices. This rollout may take some time, as is common with new features. People are hopeful for improvements in translation quality compared to previous iterations.

Let’s hope they improved the translations, too. Google does / did a much better job IMHO.

I amended my original post. Most features tend to get rolled out, so it's likely it will be spreading across to everyone over time.

actually my bad. It is there now. I had updated the app and checked a sponsored ad. For some reason those don't offer the translation, but for posts and comments it is now there with the update. Been waiting on that for a while.
