Did you also add a description so users not reading the English setting name can understand what it’s about? Or how do users who don’t speak English understand this setting?

Thanks Moin! Good point, I’ve updated to include the description:

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/35778](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/35778)

Translators via [Crowdin](https://discourse.crowdin.com/) can now update translations for the setting description so it is more understandable for those who don’t speak English
