Although I'm not fluent in English I do always prefer it to local languages when it comes to nonlocal websites since even giants like Facebook and Google can't get their translation right:
1. Almost always translated version is substantially outdated.
2. A lot of inconsistency like using different synonyms in different places for the same word in English locale.
3. Some sentences are just not translated.
