For me the page opens in Italian, but I also speak English well. If your devices are old,
I have no difficulty posting in English, but would you be able to give me the solution?

Devices aren't old, but I don't have translate enabled. And we might be able to give the solution, if you posted things in English, as the aire rules state.
I speak Italian well, but the site rules are clear
Dear TB0ne Guru LQ, I'm happy that you don't have obsolete devices, however even if you don't have translation enabled, I will always post in English so that you can understand, albeit in the forum rules https://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/rules. html there is no mention of posting only in English, thank you for your interest.
All member-created content should be in English. This allows our moderators to ensure all content complies with all LQ rules. In addition, we recommend you avoid sms/l33t speak in the technical fora. Avoiding sms/l33t speak will improve question clarity and increase the chance of receiving a helpful response.

Sorry, there is, as noted by pan64. So again; happy to try to help (as we all are), but you have to post the questions/diagnostics/information in English. Please do so.
I replied to pan64 that I will reply in English, and I replied in English, I don't know if firefox, after sending firefox translates them back into Italian I don't know if this also happens for users who read. One thing is for sure I won't be installing Chrome.
I don't think it is chrome, but some personal settings. Probably you set it somewhere (to automatically translate). I don't allow to do that for my browser, so I see the original text, which is not English therefore I don't understand. Anyway, it is not that important, just take care of it in the future.
