Compare the URL to the URLs you posted...
If I understand correctly, OP is after the non-Russian Pale Moon browser start page, not the project home page.
Oh, I see. I misunderstood.
So did I apparently. In that case I strongly suggest setting the default page to about:blank instead of that start.me crap.
yep! ended up setting a diff default page, but was more so curious about the behavior/root cause.
You could open up the developer tools of the browser, if Palemoon has it, and see the value of the Accept-Language header your browser send to sites. If that's correct, and there are no cookies set that determines language, it has to guessing based on IP.
where did you download palemoon from? Which OS are you on? Did you scan for viruses recently? Your lang may be set in English but is your region English speaking? did you try manually setting the homepage you prefer? &c et cetera
was doing some distro hopping & was trying out antiX on an old machine.
dl was done using the antiX package mgr.
region is english speaking; usa.
yes, manually set a different home page but was more so curious why this was happening.
