Title in the same language as the video or icon that indicates the language #2232

Open TigreAzul100 opened 7 months ago

TigreAzul100 commented 7 months ago

PROBLEM: I select a video with the title in Spanish but when I watch the video it is in English and I feel cheated.

SOLUTION:
The title should appear in English if speaking in English.

ALTERNATIVES: Alternatively, an icon should appear indicating that it is in English.

RELEVANCE / SCOPE: The problem may be affecting millions of people who do not speak English or have difficulty understanding it.

"SIDE EFFECTS":
I don't see any harmful side effects.

CONTEXT:

Thank you!

hi & thanks! @TigreAzul100 @m0chimxchi

Spam basically? (without even proper Spanish subtitles?)

filter spam:

2. (some) popular channels are hiring translators / voice overs, example:

So question: For each such translated video-pair, if somebody speaking Spanish primarily or only (according to their browser) AND they happen to watch a video that is translated (voice over), should we place a big link to the other video?
