Is there a way to set the default language to something other than english for all users ? I support a french speaking company and they don't like that the default language isn't french.

Thanks 👍

I totally agree — having the option to set a default language other than English would be really useful. I'm supporting users in a similar situation, and many of them expect to see their native language right from the start.

I think we could try to use the browser's language property https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/language and fallback to english.

Thoughts ?

Should be an easy add. Pulling from the browser will be the easiest first thing to do!
