It's default on my PC, maybe another A/B test...? I don't know this flag in the before, and new installation still display in local language in a Sandbox (Not able to reproduce today, but 100% reproduce in yesterday)

Well we don't know what the default means. default could mean enabled or default could mean disabled. unfortunately, they don't specify that, it was requested lots of times though to do that.

A/B or Controlled feature roll out both could be the culprits too here.

    gocloud I'm a PM on the Edge Developer Tools team. Thank you for the feedback! Developer Tools localization is currently a Controlled Feature Rollout (CFR) that is enabled by default for a small group of users. If you aren't part of that small group, you'd have to enable it yourself the way HotCakeX explained. We are slowly rolling up to more users, but we are happy to hear what y'all have to say so far. Feel free to respond to me here or file any feedback with the feedback tool in DevTools. 

     

    As for the "enabled by default" or "disabled by default" labels, I can log that feature request. Hope this helps 🙂

      yes that will really help, it's one of the highly requested features, to know what the current status of the flags is. thanks 🙂

        HotCakeX If this feature were to land, how would you feel about instances where the flag would change back and forth between "Default: Enabled" and "Default: Disabled?" Also, how often does this flag issue affect you? Thanks again for your candid perspective. We really enjoy hearing from y'all!

      hiamerica I am not sure the font (CJK character) used in developer tool changed recently? It was a bit fuzzy for localized text.

       

      Maybe font weight changed for localized text, or text render logic was changed, looks thick than Beta version but fuzzy than Beta

        gocloud Interesting. Can you provide a screenshot of the affected text in DevTools with any personal information blurred out? Just a heads-up, we re-did our CFR, so you might have to enable the feature flag again. I apologize for the inconvenience.
