Solution: Check your language settings in the web interface.

I have a weird bug when I visit !ich_iel@feddit.de from jerboa:

Though when I visit anonymously through the web client the com is active: https://feddit.nl/c/Ich_iel@feddit.de?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New

Until I log in, that empties all the content to the same level as in the app.

What is even going on? I blocked like 5 communist missionary users, but not 95% of a community.

    It’s likely to be your language settings - most of the posts there are tagged ‘Deutsch’, but the first post in your screenshot (with the plane in between the ‘ich’ and the ‘iel’) isn’t (it’s just ‘unspecified’).

    If it’s that, you’ll need to add ‘Deutsch’ as a language you understand in your user settings.

      Oh wow that setting is not even in jerboa, no wonder I couldn’t figure it out. Thank you, solved. What a stupid feature…

          I don’t get it’s purpose at all. The very basics of a community is a common set of languages that users use and the mod team can support. Multilingual coms happen when people in there are multilingual or willing to use translators, I should be able to see what I subscribe to. I could get on board with this tag being used to help an optional robotic translator, but parralel communities talking alongside in the same spot?

              Internationalisation is hard and software engineers are trained to cut everything into database sized chunks imagined by their worldview. Dutch alphanumerical postcodes wreak havoc in German adress databasese, that shit is not limited to any nation.

              The question is, how do we get non-software engineers included in the feedback cycles of development? Not by moving it to a Matrix or IRC server, that’s for sure.
