lemm.ee update to 0.18.1-rc.4 broke lemmy if navigator's language is set other than English and language setting in lemm.ee profile is set to "Browser Default"

hi, the new update entirely broke lemm.ee for me, as my main language is not English. I can see a JavaScript error when page loads.

I can confirm the page loads perfectly fine if I set my browser Accept-Language header to 'en-US'.

The error happens for both language I tried (es-ES and fr-FR). Reverting the browser back to English and everything loads fine.

Not sure if it's a lemmy issue or lemm.ee one and somehow some are files missing.

Temporary fix is to set language to English in profile. Unfortunately it's not do-able if your browser language is set to another language than English, as it will break setting page js code during load. Thus, you need to temporarily set your browser main language to English before doing the needed change in your lemmy's settings.
