Being the edge case of internet users with a different default language than what my geolocation would result in, I know how frustrating it is to expect one language, and get another one "tailored" to you in order to "improve" user experience.
However, in this specific case I agree with the parent commenter. While the preferred language should affect the UI so you can interact with the map, I feel like in this case translating the content right away could take away from the experience and is not necessarily what the language flag should mean. It shouldn't be more than a click away, though.
- dalke 11y agoI'm in immigrant living in country where English is not the native language. :) However, I think you've misinterpreted the OP's comment and my response. The OP likes the choice of native language for geographical names in a given country. You and I agree. The OP parenthetically notes that the reason is because the user has not expressed a language preference. I pointed out that the browser/user-agent actually does give a preference, which the server ignores. It is this parenthetical logic I disagree with, not the result.
