Reddit please stop with the automatic langue changes. I want my reddit app to be in English not Swedish and no I don't want to change my device language to have to do this.

It's incredibly annoying to have things like the OP tag change to TS, since everyone on reddit uses OP to describe the original poster. English is still the main language of reddit and should be a hardcoded option for language settings.

After you tap "Settings", there's a "Language" section where you can update the "display language" as well as "content language".

If you're on Android, you can tap "Language" and a drop down menu will appear. You can then switch from using device language settings to a set language option.

Hope that helps!

Any thoughts on defaulting new features to off, instead of on? Most Reddit Admins answer these kinds of questions with the same response “there’s a setting for that” but why are the setting being defaulted to ON?

If I want to use some new cool feature, I’ll turn that setting on and use it. If I don’t even know a feature exists because I’ve never turned it on, then I must not need it that badly….

FWIW, a sizable portion of your users are viewing Reddit on “.old” domains. You’d think that’d be a screaming wake up call. As a developer, it sure would be for me.
