A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

I hate accidentally clicking on that website on search results. What kind of deranged website translates code??? It ignores the browser language setting and translates based on ip, and it keeps happening even if you click turn off translate for this website. Aaaargh

There are loads of websites that do that.

History.com is the one that pisses me off since I like to read history articles. They always force me to the spanish pages since I'm in colombia and it's always the homepage, not the page I linked to. So then I have to figure out if there even is a spanish language version of the article which 80% of the time there isn't.
