I strongly encourage people to choose the right language for their toots.

Sometimes it is inevitable to forget about it but if you do your best to use it, you help to keep people timelines clean of messages that they can't understand (if they have setup the right config on their profiles). The translate option at least for me does not work most of the time and many people just don't bother and/or don't care.

Thanks in advance.

In fact some fables and legends tell that #WindowsDefender was created with the sole purpose of having an antivirus software that did not detect Windows as a threat 😜
