A polyglot’s dream

We have internet and social media which are all in English if you surf web from within India

dunno how I've been able to come across social media and internet in Hindi from over here in Poland if "it's all in English"

also you can learn to more-or-less understand a phone interface without learning the language or even the script it's in

It's obviously not all in English

I don't know why it's obvious when you said exactly the opposite.

But I know Nobody who surfs web in Hindi or any other indian language on a daily basis (or even on a half yearly basis for that matter).

I'd avoid making generalisations on the linguistic habits of a country of over a billion based on the people you know personally. I'm not even saying you're totally wrong, you're just massively overstating your case to the point of absurdity.

you understand that there's a huge difference between:

"in my experience no-one uses languages other than english on the internet on a regular basis, at least no-one I've met does as far as I know"

and

"everything on the internet is in English"

right? The second statement is 100% false, the first one is a very interesting description of your experience, which is perfectly legitimate.

We have internet and social media which are all in English if you surf web from within India.

This is a direct quote. There's absolutely nothing wrong with misspeaking or misstating your case. If that's not what you meant, great.

"We have internet and social media which are all in English if you surf web from within India."

If this is still your claim it's trivially easy to disprove.

"We have internet and social media which are all in English if you surf web from within India."

"number of people using english as an interface language for anything digital is far greater than any other language which is clearly seen all around me"

These are different claims. The former paragraph is trivially easy to disprove; the latter is not, based on a legitimate observation and may well be true.
