Dear #GitHub, when I click on a link to an English language documentation page, I don't want to be automatically redirected to a machine generated German translation.
Yes, I have both enabled in my browser. Multi-lingual people are a thing. If I want a translation, I'll explicitly ask for it.
Every site whose product owner/manager insists on automatic translation should immediately fire them.
@larsmb while I won't argue about the machine generated part, as long as the link you clicked does not include some kind of language tagging ( often /en/ somewhere in the path ), it is actually a good behavior of the website to present the content in your preferred language ( if DE has a higher priority as EN ).
Therefore I would argue that link it self sould be fixed to include the desired language and not the page it links to ... ?
Only if there is a professional translation. If not, then no, don't take me to a shitty (=AI) translation.
IMHO.
