I wish more posters would use it so foreign language posts wouldn’t show up in my All so much lol. It’d be nice if you could have a default language that set your posts to that and you could change it if you want. I imagine 99+% of posters will only ever post in one language.
Yeah 99% was definitely an overstatement, honestly I forgot the fact that people would still post in English even if it isn’t their own language just because of how ubiquitous it is online. I still think the feature would help a lot and it wouldn’t make it any harder than the current state for people that do post in multiple languages.
True, and I agree 99% isn’t true, but I don’t think 40% is either.
I speak two languages fluently and have somewhat of an understanding of a third, yet have still posted 100% in English so far… and that’s not my native language.

“Foreign” languages communities aren’t big enough on Lemmy for people to only post in them. Most people will post in English too.

More than 60% of Europeans speak more than one language.

Wasn’t trying to argue it was 40%, was just trying to give an example of why the “99%” figure was laughably off base.
