View submission: Introducing Reddit in new languages
The initial rollout of this should really have focusing on adding a translate toggle on comments.
Once you see where and when people are using it, you have sample comments for testing the autodetection and can test whether it would work or not without a full rollout.
If you are hoping this will expand to new markets, this is not going to work. For one, subreddit names have already been reserved and already enforce with moderators who have a localized bias. This also means the subreddit names that could be localized, who have been snatched up in an environment where the international markets don't care. But there are subreddit names you can't localize, and I seriously doubt Reddit is about to get the common sense to begin allowing duplicate subreddit names with a separate unique identifier, even though that would be what you would expect where these indeed "communities" as opposed to keywords for subjects and memes of interest.
There's nothing here!
