Country and language in a single drop-down menu, because in 2020 it's improbable that people born outside of a country speak any other language than their native tongue. Right?

It's the EU. You're not a full citizen (in the social sense) until you know the native language of your country of residence. How Czech are you if you can't hear the cabbies ripping you off?

Nice to see that they've already removed the UK from the list of European countries.....

Only in English, Swedish, Finnish, Estonian?

At least the language dropdown seems to be intelligable in all languages.

Compared to getting stuck in google maps in, say, Russia, where even the 'change language' menu item is in Russian, so of course you can't even find it to change to English unless you can read Russian, or happen to know where itt is already.

It's actually not all that bad, they put the accent on the language, not on the country and allow for countries that are multi-lingual.

They could have left the country out completely and if you just ignore the country then it works fine.

I guess UK citizens settled in other countries can pretend they're Irish?

As opposed to 'just English' which is more or less the norm in start-up land?
