Solely because I can’t read anything but English, I keep blocking foreign language communities as its just noise for me. But I have selected Undefined/English as my languages in settings.
It seems the language choice is never used by communities and posts? All of the .de instance posts seem to be “undefined” language. If they selected a specific language which matches their post language, it wouldn’t show up on my feed, right?
And currently there isn’t a way to block whole instances as a user, as far as I understand.
Will I have to just continuously hide foreign language communities as a user?
I’m not suggesting defederating or anything like that, just making my own feed less “noisy”
I’m new to Lemmy and on my first day trying to get to grips with it, I couldn’t post a comment because the Community wouldn’t allow the language (I was posting in English and all the other comments on the post were in English, and my language settings are set to Undefined and English). The whole language selection is actually a blocker to engagement at times.
