Do I have to use load_plugin_textdomain() or is there any default folder for languages?
Yes but it is not useful if you plan to bundle your language files with your plugin: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/load_plugin_textdomain/ If the path is not given then it will be the root of the plugin directory. So it will look in wp-content/plugins The third parameter is only used if you want to use a subfolder. Likewise, if … Read more

Plugin translation ready – mo file not loaded
The load_plugin_textdomain() function had not the same textdomain as given in the PHP file of the plugin. I had written dummy names for this thread, therefore it could not be seen. But I changed it.

Change WordPress language based on user setting
Your use of $current_user is a little wrong, you should include the global $current_user or assign it to a variable, or shorter and cleaner just get_current_user_id(): add_filter(‘locale’, ‘change_lang’); function change_lang( $locale ) { if( $lang = get_user_meta( get_current_user_id(), ‘user_lang’, true) ) { return $lang; } return $locale; }
Using esc_attr function
Remember to have the text domain along with the render functions (echo function).
