I’m so fucking tired of google using my geolocation instead of my browser settings to decide which language to use.
- that_guy_iain 6y agoI have a Google Suite account and literally it keeps defaulting things to German when I have changed multiple things back to English. For the love of god I still can't figure out how to make it default constantly to English.
- Semaphor 6y agoAt least non-Suite sites figured that out a while ago. I think you need to change your language in 3 different places though.
- ffpip 6y agoAdding ?hl=en at the end of the URL fixes the issues on most google pages
- rcMgD2BwE72F 6y agoTrue. But still excruciating that Google refuse to let the users' configure that. You can't even save this settings on the browser's search engine.
- Viliam1234 6y agoSomewhere in Google: "Hey, what is this list of language codes that browsers send in the request? Could we use it somehow?" "Don't worry about it, we already use it to calculate fingerprints."
