No one is spending money to cater to a miniscule audience.
Comment on Why do websites now prefer IP-based geolocation rather than the `Accept-Language` HTTP header?
undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 3 days agoSure, but that could be decoupled from language/regional preferences.
When I travel to another country my smartphone doesn’t change its language to match that of the host country, so why don’t websites respect the user-defined preference defined in the header?

Doesn’t it cost less money to parse the header than to pay for an entire geolocation dataset?

It was not that long ago when Android changed my on screen keyboard to a different layout whenever I was in a different country. Really annoying - I don’t suddenly type in Danish when I’m on a business trip to Lyngby (near Copenhagen)
