I like the website.
In the language selection section at the bottom flags are images. I'd rather make them emojies: 🇬🇧, 🇪🇸.
Do you already have a plan how to promote the website?
Using flags to represent languages is wrong. Don't do that. Flags represent countries, not languages.
Yes, I get it, they look pretty in an UI but no, just don't.
A country can have multiple languages and one language can be an official language in many countries. So, no, don't.
If something I just said wasn't quite clear enough, please see: https://www.flagsarenotlanguages.com/
Point taken.
I also completely agree. It's shortcode provided by a wordpress plugin - I've removed the flags now (in the dodgiest way possible, with CSS - fastest way possible). Will look into a cleaner solutions later.
