One thing I can tell you with confidence about the Netherlands is that people there almost invariably overestimate their proficiency in English, so adverts and public announcements and the like in English often have embarrassing mistakes, so I’d put money down that they’re not going to hire a native speaker or perhaps even a chartered translator to check the translations.
Suspicious contempt for the rhythm section here.

I use the Firefox extension Untrap on my PC, and every time I go on Youtube it says the extension’s slowing the browser down. I use Invidious on an old tablet when I go to bed, and I just have to refresh now and again to get it working, but there are far fewer instances on the list, I’ve noticed.
God, finally someone else is saying it. I feel like a stick in the mud whenever this comes up.
Literally the only thing I know about Robert Downey Junior is that he plays Iron Man in Iron Man.
