Are you talking maybe about comments when someone is not keeping the same language to which he/she is replying to?

Of course not. Any language, and music, and culture, and of course and most importantly foods, I respect and welcome dearly. :-)

Great, we're going to have to have different SN versions in the different languages and I have to figure out some way to do content aggregation to keep connected outside the English language bubble because using a translation extension was just too inconvenient for you.

Reminds me, making a platform where the only form of communication is via emojis was on my to do list...unfortunately, I have a lot of fun projects going around.

And you really think the best way to penetrate English language bubble is to reply in different language than a post or a comment that you reply to, lol

Like the best way of ordering some food in restaurant abroad is to order it in your ununderstandable language, but hey, talking s-l-o-w-l-y, lol

ask Jewish people why is it still just too inconvenient to buy german cars for some of them, even till today...

I think that's a privilege and I feel grateful and humbled when somebody who speaks a different language, even more so when it's a very different one, finds what I have to say interesting enough to take the time to read it and make the effort to reply on their own language bringing what I posted to other people who might have never been able to read it.

On top of that, I might get a couple of sats from some of those people I would've never reached myself, but did thank to my unexpected translator. Isn't variability and diversity the most wonderful thing nature gives us? :-)

That's ok, I respect your point of view. But, personally - I respect people who respect my precious time, e.g. by not forcing me to waste my time on unnecessary translation (especially: this)
