Honestly this popup really bothered me. LibreWolf is asking me to switch my language settings to English for better privacy. This is after I already specifically didn't check the box to do that. I'm so tired of tech being English by default. Chinese has more L1 speakers so why not make that the default?

@kkarhan If the argument is that most websites look at GeoIP instead of language codes anyway, sure. It still annoys me tho because not everyone speaks English

@kkarhan @robinsyl I often end up with en_DK locale on my system, and it breaks things now and then xD

@robinsyl We’re still trying to convince developers that MM/DD/YY is not the only date format. Glwt.
