I've been doing the exact same with French for the past few years : you manage to find a lot of decent quality stuff in French overall, but as soon as you need to look up GitHub issues or stack overflow answers, using French is a clear issue.
- Kaiyou 7y agoInterestingly enough, while using the Internet, learning English came naturally, but I don't really see a point of learning other languages. I wonder why that is. Maybe the benefits are just too deeply hidden or there aren't enough benefits. Possibly there is a bias in search engines that enables the hiding of resources in other languages. (While they are quite persistent to offer me results in the language of the country I'm residing in, despite doing all my searches in English.)
- wink 7y agoMaybe my view is skewed by the fact (well, I think it is so) that I learn languages a lot faster by speaking or surrounding myself with them. Studying at home simply does not work for me. I love languages, but I'd prefer to be fluent before using them for important stuff.
