The settings page says “Warning: If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content.”, however there is no option for this. I can’t comment on other communities, is this related?

    I’m noticing that when I view some communities in other instances from within the feddit.uk instance, it says there is 0 comments on every post, or I can’t see posts at all. When I view them from an account I made on lemmy.world, I can see everything. I can only assume that this is related to the ‘Undetermined’ language option. Tom is this something you can look into please? Under Settings there is a Languages box (different to interface language), but we can only select English rather than ‘Undetermined’.

      Yeah this is my understanding, that if you do not have “undetermined” then you miss out on a lot of stuff

      If you Ctrl+ Click English and Unspecified, it will select both. I’ve personally just clicked on the languages box, pressed Ctrl + A to select them all, so I can see posts in all languages. I had an issue at first where I accidentally selected only Undetermined and some Cyrillic language, so when I posted from jerboa (which I guess automatically selects the language if you have more than Unspecified set), it was marked as that language.

        We have my pinned post on the main page now where this has been addressed, thanks. It was an issue for accounts created within feddit.uk

          Just came here to edit my comment (and mention I didn’t realise this was an instance-specific issue) after seeing that, cheers!
