With this change, the languages will be sorted by their English names. This could be a little confusing for non-English users since the language list has no logical order in their language (the language names themselves are localized).

If we go with sorting by language name, I suggest we also sort the list in other languages. (Another issue should be opened for that, though.)

I strongly agree, How about following Wikipedia?

@luixxiul How does Wikipedia sort languages?

Also, I found this old issue for my previous point (#1747).

no objection since it doesn't make it worse but I think doing a sort within the render in react would be better because it would work with all langs
