In Switzerland pretty much all sites have a setting for French, German, Italian and often English. It is very much a multi-language country.

It is great to be able to select individually per site. I often like to use the native French and just drop back to English if its technical language.

I do find that every site has the setting in a different place which is annoying, it would be great to be able to select it in a standard place on the browser.

The worst offenders are the single language per country sites. For example Ebay insists on only using German in Switzerland, which is rather frustrating since I only know English and French so far.
