@ghewgill@mastodon.nzoss.nz Hello! I understand your point of view, but having two different instances for two different languages would be a waste of resources. All the bilingual (or multilingual, like India or Switzerland) would require it, and it would be too difficult to manage.
I'll try to think about a solution for this.

@admin Perhaps another option would be to support any location in any language somehow. Like if I wanted to get forecasts for Japan in German, I'd follow the right account. It would separate the concerns of location and language.
I read some about your server architecture and I think I understand how you've got things split up. Maybe something like following tokyo.de@jp.fedimeteo.com for different language reports (and just tokyo@ for the "default" language for that location).

Interesting idea, but this would be impossible with the current setup. I should create an instance for each country/language combination - which would be almost impossible.

@admin I guess there are two problems to solve here - (1) what the user interface should look like (what account to follow), and (2) how to implement that on the back end. Is your fedimeteo code open source?
