I don't really understand this sentiment. I'm clearly targeting fellow portuguese speakers on a low traffic thread. It feels… weird to be policed for my choice

  Well, I'm a fellow portuguese speaker and it felt weird as heck, but then again this is HN, and it's been weeks since I read or wrote anything but English :)

    Ora, precisamente porque tirei a oportunidade de desenferrujar a escrita. Vê-lá tu, para mim fazem anos e anos desde que escreva em português :P. Regresso com frequência (tenho que marcar viagem mas em princípio daqui a duas semanas…), mas como emigramos enquanto eu era catraio não tenho network nenhum e é-me difícil ficar acompanhado com as notícias.

  It's rude to all non Portuguese speakers not to conform to the official language here - English. if you want to address the Portuguese community here, just say your comment in English, and add "By the way, I am from Portugal as well, feel free to contact me." or whatever.

  Because if everyone starts doing that, no one will understand anything in this community.

    I wish the bad posters here would start writing in another language. Maybe Klingon.

  FYI Not everyone found it rude. Copying-pasting into google translate wasn't that hard for me.

  If it's in the first page (and it got to number 2) it definitely has a lot of traffic. Also, the article that is linked is in English
