I find myself blocking a lot of foreign communities just because they’re foreign. It feels wrong and unnecessary. This is the future isn’t it?

If I set my settings to English why can’t I just use Lemmy in English and never know that the person I’m chatting to is doing so in German and they never know that I’m doing so in English?

    Seems like submitting a post should require setting a language for it :/ No need to “determine” the language when the submitter can simply note what it is. The default for the field could even be their set profile language to make it easier.
