Off-topic, but their “pretty” design is surely an anti-pattern for attracting developers. (Then I looked at https://github.com/ and it has an inane graphical world that looks like a designer’s folio project too!)

Gitee also put the site language choice in the footer - odd choice. Plus some UI bugs on the page. Yuck.

I'm not sure the choice in the footer is that odd here. It appears as another code collaboration service to me and I assume it defaults to Chinese in China. I would likely not realise it's a project under Chinese protection if it wasn't mentioned here in context.

Ypu would if you didn't just read the homepage. There is Chinese all over it.

Maybe we get a different version for some reason, but the only indication I get is oschina.cn in the footer. Not a Chinese character on the whole page.
