How to sync / set default display language (Visual Studio Code for the Web)

Body

Hi

My local OS is German, but I would like to keep display language for vscode web in English. Obviously this can be changed, however seems not to be sync with profile and I could not find a way to set in in a dotfile. Is there a way to make it persistent, so a new created codespaces will use new settings?

Thanks
Marcin

Hi Marcin,

This looks like a gap where the display language isn't synced. I've opened an internal issue about this, thanks for letting us know!

Any update after a year? Thanks

Thnx @joshaber - would you be able somehow to bind it to internal ticket - so this one will get updated once the internal one is resolved?

We don't have the ability to do that automatically but I've added a note on the issue.

If sync the language is complicated, please consider defaulting to english
