Bug: Jerboa is mostly ignoring language

Chais@sh.itjust.works to Jerboa@lemmy.ml – 3 points –

Title. The language of a post or comment is never displayed, nor can it be defined when writing posts or comments.
This leads to posts/comments with the language set to "undetermined" which leads to them appearing to users that didn't select the actual language.

Edit: Additionally some communities seem to have started disallowing "undetermined" as a post/comment language, leading to Jerboa users being unable to post/comment. I've encountered !foodporn@lemmy.world so far.

Tbh I feel like the language attribute is poorly implemented in lemmy, or at least in the client interfaces I've used. Why is it necessary at all?

Why is it necessary at all?

I feel like they planned for it to be a bigger feature and then put it on hold for more pressing stuff. The idea that I can only pick 1 language to see posts in is ridiculous.
