Hello Leonardo,

Thank you for your email seeking feedback. I will give you a brief
description of my daily experience using the international features of
elementary os.

On a daily basis, I type in English, Esperanto, Spanish, and
Portuguese (my four main languages). Less often I type in French,
Italian, German, Russian, and Georgian. I am learning Hebrew right now
as well. I want to learn Chinese.

I like that I can have more than four keyboard layouts active at one
time (this was a limitation I experienced in Linux Mint).

The main problem I have with keyboard layouts in elementary is that
often the selected layout will not stay active and the keyboard will
revert back to the system language (in my case English). Also the
keyboard shortcuts for switching languages ((shift)-alt-space) often
are not saved.

Also I had trouble trying to install chinese support... I tried using
fcitx and it kind of works but not very well.

Other than those things, I am fairly happy with international keyboard
support in elementary os.

Thanks for everything you do!

Jon
