    I would love it if Lemmy had direct support for me to tell it what languages I speak and I’ll never see communities in languages I don’t speak.

      Well it does but the problem is that most people don’t actually fill out the language field.

      And if you tell it to hide undefined then it hides like 99% of posts.

      What needs to happen is that it needs to actually work out the language and then put the tag on

        On the spare instance that I use, the language settings are simply not taken into account. I choose to display posts in my language, save, but the settings return to default and only english is displayed.
