convert locales from a session/cookie to individual directories
when working with multilingual sites, it's generally recommended for SEO purposes to:
- define the language inside the markup
- include the language/locale in the url (eg:
https://content.minetest.net/en-us/vshttps://content.minetest.net/) - (optionally - need to confirm) use
hreflangon canonical urls to denote different translated versions of the page
problems:
- package pages: UGC is not translated in to multiple languages, how can we deal with this?
- flat pages: these also aren't translated
this might be something that's either impossible to do or very difficult, but would be ideal in the long term
This requires package meta translation, which requires that the engine support it first ( https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/12208 )
Engine support has been merged, which means that this issue is now waiting on #516
closing for now, this would be quite disruptive for such a low % of translated packages. Can be reconsidered when more packages support translation
