Yes, English is the "universal" language, whether we like it or not, and speaking in another language in a public place (such as a github issue tracker) is disrespectful, because it's like gatekeeping information and knowledge.
- silasdavis 8y agoHmm. No.
- aaomidi 8y agoNo it's not. This is imperialist thinking. There is no universal language. If you want to understand what they're saying hire a translator or use an online service. They're not using some obscure language only a few people understand. Get out with your western centric thinking.
