Hello everyone,

As a warning, most of the communities from jlai.lu are in French, so you won't see anything if you have not selected that language in your settings.

[-] freamon@endlesstalk.org 11 points 1 year ago

French Lemmy is doing well. It's good to see people use Lemmy to build Communities and post in their own language.

I'm not sure that allowing 'unspecified' as a language was ever a good idea though. It means people can use that, post in whatever language they want, and mods have to take extra steps to confirm it's not the most incendiary thing ever. Also, for instances like jlai.lu, it means some posts are visible, some aren't, and it makes it harder to deduce why. I assume it exists because if you're building an app or a frontend, language support is one of those boring things that gets added later.

(I wrote this listening to "Ecco the Dolphin Defender of the Future Music: Dolphin's Intrigue" from !videogamegrooves@lemm.ee - it's oddly terrifying)

[-] MBM@lemmings.world 5 points 1 year ago

I'll be honest, I don't really see why we can select a language in the first place. I guess it's because Mastodon has it?

[-] freamon@endlesstalk.org 4 points 1 year ago

Perhaps. It maybe guards against assumptions that English should be a default language, and that there are implicit rules that everyone should be using it on the Internet. Tagging a comment as 'English' might seem a bit redundant, but it normalises the idea of commenting in other languages.

Also, it provides a mechanism to hide posts from you that you wouldn't understand (although it's probably endless debatable about whether such posts should be hidden)

More important than all of this though, is that I saw an untagged comment the other day, written in Hebrew, and if they'd tagged it and I'd not seen it, I wouldn't have spent an inordinate amount of time trying to translate it from Star Wars Aurebesh.

I’m not sure that allowing ‘unspecified’ as a language was ever a good idea though.

I know, I'm not sure either. Sticking to one language would probably make more sense, but I guess it's too late now
