Change the order of the entries in the "Locale" panel. The first language/currency combination is the default one.
In the frontend, you will automatically get the texts for the default language.

Add an entry with the language and currency you want if it doesn't exist yet and set position to 0. Remove the other entries you don't need and make sure only one is at position 0.

I have a similar problem.
With just two languages, I have ensured that their order in Locale tab is proper, with only one language with Position 0.
In the dropdown menu, the order is correct, however, when the site is loaded, it still picks up incorrect language as a default:

Is there something in the configuration I can change in order to make this work?

Additionally - is there a way to preserve a language selected when clicking on the menu in the top left corner? It seems that it resets to default value.

Check for:
- Caching ("php artisan aimeos:clear" to flush caches)
- Default locale in ./config/app.php
- SHOP_MULTILOCALE=true in .env file

Thank you, ./config/app.php had locale set to "en", and in .env file there was no mention of SHOP_MULTILOCALE, so I added it.
The site now no longer defaults to "en" version.
