Langly is a fantastic language switcher plugin that’s lightweight, easy to integrate, and works great with Google Translate. I really like the flexibility it offers —  Language based dropdown, flag-based dropdowns(coming soon) to text-only styles and even modern themes.  It's also GDPR-aware, which is a big plus. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a simple way to add multilingual support to their site without the bloat of heavier plugins! 



If you face any issues or have suggestions, feel free to reach out — the support team is responsive and helpful.
