Filtering languages (lemmy.world)

If there a way to filter other languages or something? It's good they're there, but seeing posts from communities that communicate entirely in a language I don't read is basically useless and in tired of filtering eight communities per day only to make little to no difference.

Yes, in your settings.

Make sure to keep Undetermined in your languages, however you'll miss the vast majority of the content

And since a lot of people don't set their language when they post, they means you still get posts in other languages.

That's another issue, feel free to remind people who post in other languages than English to tag their posts.

On the other hand, Reddit never had languages tags, and people would just avoid communities they would not understand
