Lately I’ve been seeing a lot of posts in German in the All feed. I love that there’s communities on Lemmy that aren’t in English. I wish there were some available in my second language. However, I can’t read or understand German and seeing posts in German regularly is starting to get a bit annoying.

Is there a setting available anywhere, that I’ve missed, to filter by language? Or, will I be best just blocking these communities as they come up in the feed?

    I think we missed a valuable opportunity to only respond in German, like when that guy accidentally set his reddit to Spanish and everyone helped in Spanish.

    If people have tagged them with the correct language, your language settings will filter out languages you haven’t enabled.

    If people haven’t tagged their post with the correct language, then you can’t filter it

    Nein, aber Sie können die Community blockieren.

    It motivated me to study German. But you can just block any communities that post in languages that you don’t understand.

    Click to go to the home page of the community you don’t like. Then in the upper right corner select the dots then down at the bottom select block community.
