i know of, for example, russian-americans who have their google in russian
my lemmy is in spanish and my search engine, portuguese
Most things are in German, but if something isn’t translated to German yet or I can’t be bothered to change it from English, it doesn’t bother me much to use it in English either.
It started with DOS and I don’t even know if there was a possibility to have it localized.
I just want to comment on how good Gboard is with multiple languages that share a keyboard (or nearly do). It’s gonna be the hardest thing to give up in my slow de googling process.
I used to have English/Spanish and now English/Danish. It will autocorrect mostly to whichever mode you’re in first, but will do some and not fight you on the secondary. Very good for like a conversation in English but an address in another language.
I don’t think it adds anything to my Japanese keyboard layout, just have to swap each way
And you can set the layout while still having the localized letters (e.g. polish keyboard + special characters with qwertz layout)
Samesies. Will also be one of the harder things to cut out. I have GER/EN/UA and it works very well, apart from some capitalisation errors.
I have everything in English, even though it is not my native language. It was what the versions of DOS were as a kid, and I got so used to it that using the Danish version seems odd to me.
Spanish is my first language, but English has pretty much taken over so PC is all in English, phone is all in English.
I am Hungarian, but everything I use is in English. As a software developer it’s basically the language of my work and I started consuming media in English at a young age.
English, which is not my native language
Native Spanish, who learnt English at an early age and Italian later on. Everything’s in English, though from time to time I’ll switch to Italian when I feel my grasp on the language weaken.
As someone whose second language is French and has everything in French, set your computer to English. it’s so much easier to Google error messages when they’re in English.
I usually keep all my settings in English. It makes it easier when you’re looking for help online when you need something
english, it is better handled by computers at all levels
All my devices (PC, Smartwatch, Steam Deck etc) are in (British) English, with the exception of my phone, which is in my native German.
I’ve got my stuff in Japanese. Just trying my best to keep it sharp and not let English kick it out of my brain (which it is aggressively trying to do.)
Some devices are in Polish, some in English.
English and my native language. It depends on my mood. Usually, if you need to find some resolution to the technical issues, it’s easier to use English.
