Right my_user.discussion_languages is the correct one. And it being empty means that all languages are enabled (to avoid storing lots of unnecessary db rows). Im testing with a new account on ds9.lemmy.ml and can see posts marked as English without any problems.

I cant really how such a problem could happen and only affect those specific instances. Can you check through the api which languages are enabled on a new account? The info is under /api/v3/site in the field discussion_languages, it should contain numbers from 0-183 which are all the language ids.

I confirmed this just now, when registering a new account all discussion languages are enabled. However this isnt properly indicated in the lemmy-ui user settings.

When you signup, all languages are enabled by default. I believe it was like this since the feature was first implemented. I recently made a pull request so that languages are automatically configured from accept-language header.

The automatic language tag should only depend on the community language settings and user language settings. Specifically it will build the intersection of both, and if the result only contains one item (excluding "undetermined"), that is used as the post language. The instance doesnt matter at all. And there havent been any changes in this area in a while, so there should be no difference between 0.19.x versions.

I thought maybe the community language isnt federated properly but its identical on all mentioned instances. Also @Camus@sh.itjust.works mentioned that French is enabled in user settings. There is clearly a bug but I cant think what else might be causing it.

Anyway please report such bugs directly on the issue tracker, otherwise I might not find out about it at all.

This is strange because neither of the communities you mentioned has any language restrictions. Can you say what error is being returned exactly? You might have to use browser dev tools to see the details.

I noticed this bug a few weeks ago and fixed it. This will be included in the next release.

Yet it's still noticeable that people from the US are way overrepresented compared to all other countries.

Thanks for the support. I think the era of single, centralized sources of information will soon be in the past.

  1. This would be a project on its own, with writing import scripts, hosting an instance etc. Certainly not something I have time for, just like I'm not running a Reddit mirror for Lemmy. If you or someone else wants to set it up, go ahead!
  2. How would you detect that it's the same article, only from having the identical title? That could fail in lots of ways.
  3. I agree about this.

I answered a similar question here: https://lemmy.ml/comment/9329423

Available Soon.

Dansup is well known for making grand announcements and delivering on them very late or never. I think it was more than two years ago that he announced federated groups for Pixelfed and still nothing. So I wouldn't get my hopes up yet.

500 Mb symmetrical. It's more than enough even while running a home server.
