 * I have Premium Deepl API plan and I put their API key into the website.

 * It means no text is sent to the API.
 * Does the Usage bar show properly on the first tab of DeepL settings page ?
 * Do you have some custom editor and/or exotic custom fields ?

 * yes, the usage seems fine – there is one milion characters remaining. I would
   insert image, but it is not possible here. I would insert video how it looks,
   but it would be public here so also not good.
 * there is nothing special or exotic on the website which should cause this. We
   dont se custom fields now.
 * I tried it as plain text without any Groups (the left sidebar in wordpress) and
   it was the same.

 * Oh, on the /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=deepl_settings&tab=translation 
   page, did you check the three boxes ( post_title, post_content, post_excerpt)?
