Any idea if we can use filters for posts in a specific language? (mastodon.social)

Yea you can it’s in the settings on the web version

Just uncheck the ones you don’t want to see on your settings. Should be available on the website version.

EDIT: Settings->3 line menu->Other (By default it starts on Appearance I think)

Hi there! Your text contains links to other Lemmy communities, here are correct links for Lemmy users: !mastodon@lemmy.world

I have the same question. If not filters, is there a way to translate posts into a specific language? I'm guessing that would have to be a feature of the app I'm using to access the fediverse?

@scratch There is a translate feature built in, but it requires that your instance have configured it, since it utilizes a a third-party service for the translation. You reach out to your instance admin to ask about it.

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up.
