Quite simply, all of the options regarding general use of Lemmy appear in the local language. I went to the settings and changed my language to English, which is also my browser and PC language, but it is still displaying options in the local language.

How in the hell do I turn this off?

While I am fluent, I generally keep PC stuff in English for troubleshooting regions so this bugs me. For expats or people on holiday this could render the website unusable. This seems like a massive oversight...
