Hey, so the option to filter out entire instances would be nice, considering some non-english ones have very active communities.

I'm not sure either understand the fact Lemmy has language settings that aren't apparently used. Seems this can be solved by just setting the language to "English" for instance...

Considering I've used the mobile app exclusively, I didn't see the language setting, thanks! But the issue remains, I'm still getting posts from Italian/German instances and others. Maybe the language isn't set for those particular instances ?

Yeah when I was changing the language settings it tells you not to de-select "Unspecified" for language. Since a ton of people don't set their own language. If you only had English on it would only show English posts. But it would also only show the people who do use the language setting properly, so a lot of posts in English would be blocked too.

I think it would be beneficial to start enforcing not using that setting. Don't receive posts from anyone that has unspecified at the server.
