Hello,

I have 3 languages (German (Main), French, English).
When I go to the media library. I have different medias showing

For German I have 1382 medias
For French I have 1532 medias
and for English only 140 medias

How can this be. I want always the same medias showing no matter the language.

When I in the gutenberg editor of an english post and want to add an image I only can choose one of the 140 images but I want to ahve access to all images which has been uplaoded.
