I have both German and English as my languages and as the languages my server supports.

Choosing a language on every post is kinda tedious, I forget to do it most of the time. Sometimes this leads to the post not being able to send, but on some subs it does send, but with the wrong language setting.

I mostly post in English, but unfortunately German is the default chosen setting, I think because it is in the top of the list.

I don’t even think that a language setting necessarily is a bad idea, but the way it works it differs massively from reddit, right?

Also when I sent a post, I can’t see which language I did choose, so I have to click edit to see if I set it correctly. It’s not a good user experience to choose this setting but then not having indicated what influence it has and which setting I used to post.

Anyways, lemmy is great nonetheless.

    This is more a workaround than an answer, but if you make sure your language settings are set to English, German and Undetermined, then it will default to undetermined for your posts, and that will always work!
