[WEB-7137] minecraft.net site doesn't redirect to pt-br automatically, instead redirects to pt-pt

Reopening bug report: My previous report was marked as a duplicate and supposedly resolved, but I'm still experiencing the issue on May 25, 2024.

The bug: When anyone in Brazil accesses the Minecraft website (https://minecraft.net), they are redirected to the Portuguese (Portugal) version (https://minecraft.net/pt-pt).

Here's the problem: While both versions are Portuguese, they have significant vocabulary differences. Brazil uses Brazilian Portuguese (https://minecraft.net/pt-br), which is a better fit for Brazilian players.

I believe this is a redirection bug that has been unresolved for years.

Just as a quick note, your previous report was not marked as duplicate, but resolved as cannot reproduce.

Yes , I saw your comment on my old bug report now, thanks for explaining it to me! But what I meant was that the redirection should be automatic, without me having to go to the end of the page and have to change the language.
