Research direction
Start by reproducing a Steam Community discussion URL containing the "l" GET parameter and compare it with the extension's handling of Steam Community page navigation. The change is done when such links no longer override the user's language setting, either by using that setting or omitting the parameter.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
While browsing possible solutions to a game-related problem on the internet, certain Steam Community discussion pages may pop up which have the "l" GET parameter still attached to them when they were indexed by the search engine. This overrides your personal settings and forces the language set in the GET parameter throughout the page.
Describe the solution you'd like
Have the SteamDB browser extension automatically replace this with your personal language setting, or outright omit this parameter from the link when loading into a Steam Community discussion page.
