Which english to use?

[Snusmumriken]

My audience is 42% US 11% Canada 8% Germany 7% Brazil 5% UK 4% Russia and then a bunch of other countries around 3%. I use UK English. So I don't think It really matters as much.

I think I read once that Americans sometimes refuse to read stuff written in other English but whatever survey they based that statement on might have been biased. Anyway, for everyone else, I don't think it matters much. A lot of non-native speakers might not even be able to tell the difference. So just go for your own type of English! It's always nice to see something else.

So there are many kinds of english out there. I think the most well known ones are US and UK.
I'm Australian so I'm used to using Australian english when I write.
I've notice that the in the insight my audience is mainly from Australia which makes sense because I write in Australian english and they would be more receptive to it. Not that most Australians would even care about what english they read.
I have a lot of people from Australia but not many from other places like UK and US as they only account for less than 20%. Back to the title, should I be using UK or US english to make it more friendly to these more populated countries?

Your statistics are inflated by your own views.

Medieval Shakespearean-esque English ofc

It doesnt matter honestly. Type of English is not even on the list of excuses to drop a book for
