accept-language:en-US,de-DE; loads the login page in German rather than English.
Explanation:
Apparently KiwiIRC defaults to en-gb. This is different than most websites / browsers which generally default to en-US. Since I occasionally read in German (but am not fluent), my accept header looks like this:
accept-language:en-US,de-DE;
It seems that en-US is unrecognized and I am served de-DE page. This was very confusing and led me to believe it was a geolocation issue (I am in Switzerland).
Workaround: I added en-gb as the prefered language in my browser to see the login page in english.
