Non-English comments?

1. English is not my first language, either, but I don't think anyone would like to see the site crammed with comments scribbled in dozens of different languages.

2. I was about to report a lengthy comment written in a certain hieroglyph when I realized I hadn't even read the site rules. So I went on to do just that and found there wasn't even a rule or guideline for languages allowed. Shouldn't there be one?

Keep up the good work. Thanks!

Maybe make an on-site translator for users to be able to translate to their language.

If you're using a browser that has been updated in the past 20 years, you have a translator built into it. Just use that.

If you want to read comments written in foreign languages, that you can translate with just a few clicks, but won't, that's called laziness.

At the risk of being redundant, I was just going to mention that I use the “Translate” function in Safari all the time, often with hilarious results. 😁
