Isn't that just saying "most content is set to undetermined"? I.e. most posters don't care.
I think most users/viewers would have English and undetermined set, so it should be a good idea to use English for English content.
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.
#shitamericanssay
More than 60% of Europeans speak more than one language.
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.
Wasn't trying to argue it was 40%, was just trying to give an example of why the "99%" figure was laughably off base.
"Foreign" languages communities aren't big enough on Lemmy for people to only post in them. Most people will post in English too.
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.
