This is already possible, there are several ways to do this: Set your preferred language in your desktop session and use a browser that detects this and passes the language on to the website. Set your preferred language in a browser that passes the language on to the website. https://www.debian.org/intro/cn#howtoset Set your preferred language using an extension that overrides the default browser choice of language, possibly differently for each site. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=Accept-Language Set a Debian language cookie overriding browser language settings. https://www.debian.org/intro/cn#override Click on the individual translations at the bottom of each page: https://www.debian.org/#pageLang > I've read the explanation on how it works (with the browser's > preferred language setting), but I feel that that is a poor solution > - at least in my case. It sounds like you missed the cookie based override mechanism, please let us know where you looked for language overrides, so that we can improve the discoverability of the override. > My preferred language is danish for most content, but for technical > content, I prefer english.
