Request for feedback: is localisation a good idea?

[tecosaur]

Now that there's some light telemetry going on, I have noticed that the majority of the users are from non-english speaking countries.

This has me wondering whether it could be worth providing localisation for the few messages/prompts that this extension produces.

To all non-english users: what do you think?

Danish user here. Personally, I probably wouldn't use a localized version, as the whole environment is English for me anyway. I would expect the large majority of users to be able to use the English version.

This might depend a lot on the country, though. My country generally uses English a lot, but I guess it might be useful in countries that don't use English as much.

French user here. I feel like usually the localisation feature makes it weirder because your plugin would be in French for example, but not the rest of vscode. I experienced it recently in an issue I had in latex workshop (here), and then when I want to show my issue, I guess it makes it more difficult for the maintainer.

I mean, why not, but I am not sure the gain would be worth it.

I noticed about 27% of the users are from China. I'm going to add Chinese translations and hope the community can add other languages.
