Subject: [PATCH] Do not translate own notes if logged in with private key

If you're not the private key user, it's possible you're just lurking on
somebody's account and you might not speak their language, so you might
need translations.

Changelog-Fixed: Do not translate own notes if logged in with private key
Closes: #943
