    This is a small part of anglo colonialism by the anglo tech industry.

    Let’s not forget, the U.S tech industry was originally developed only for English speakers and treated foreign speakers as an after thought.

    • Notice how many sites (like Reddit) demand an account identifier that only uses English letters and numbers.
    • How many tech infrastructural (like compilers and editors) programs (for example gcc, git, the linux kernel, and emacs) only have English documentation and allows only English use in identifiers and configuration.
