[Diana-Rus]

Pre-requisites:

• Have a different language set then EN locale, in my case I used Deutsch(German).

Steps to reproduce

1. Open app.
2. Check the "Default Top Sites" list.

Expected behavior

The Pocket Top Articles is not displayed for non EN-locales, only Wikipedia and YouTube default top sites are displayed.

Actual behavior

The Pocket Top Articles top sites is displayed for non EN-locales.

Note:

• The actual result is the same for Shquip(Albanian) Cestina(Czech), Espanol(Spanish), Francais(French), Italiano(Italian), Pусский(Russian).
• The Default top site list is not updated
  * when the language is changed
  * nor when closing and opening the app
  * neither when putting the app in background and bringing it in foregorund afterwards.

I was able to reproduce this on the latest Beta build 4.0.0-RC1 with Google Pixel 3a XL (Android 10).

Currently, the default top site list is not updated when changing locales. On first install, they are just added to the list.

I opened #9286 to look into this more.

Hi, as an extra note this issue is also reproducible when interchanging device language, after the first install, not only in app language.
