English vs. Non-English
This post is about the default language of a new site in SharePoint Online. There are some pros and cons of using English as the default language for Non-English sites.
In my case I want to know what is better for Swedish users:

Update LocaleId and TimeZone with PnP
If you get an error while trying to update Regional Settings on your SharePoint Online Site, then PowerShell combination of PnP and CSOM are to the rescue.
The issue I got was that indexed columns were there. You can try to remove indexed columns and re-add them. But it is not the best solution. In my scenario, it was an indexed column that I couldn’t remove.
The reason why I use a combination of PnP and CSOM (Load, Update, ExecuteQuery), is that I have not found a way of updating RegionalSettings in PnP.
