Eeeek! No.. not geolocation :-( That "technology" is the bane of my existence. It can never get it right for me as an English speaker living in Germany. I already have to special-order my keyboards from
I guess as English speaker living in Germany you got used to find the "English" button on web pages, so I don't see this as valid objection against making it easier for the other >80 million germans.
My objection is not that I don't want to click on the English button.. it's that so many web sites depend on the geolocation instead of browser language preference... which is the "right" way to do it. Also.. so many international websites that are localised see I'm in Germany, switch to German and do not give me an opportunity to switch to English... no English button anywhere (no flag, no language selection dropdown), and if I force the issue and set EN in the URL in place of DE, it just switches back to DE. But this is outside the thread... and not going to be resolved here since it's nothing to do with openSUSE.
