  I wish there was a way to auto tag your posts as a language. 99.99% of my comments will be English. I should t have to pick English from the stupid drop down.

  Also from what I’ve seen most apps just ignore language all together.

    This is a setting communities can enforce i believe

      So far the only time I’ve encountered that is forcing no language to be set which is obnoxious.

        !movies@lemm.ee has all posts tagged as English

    Communities can be configured to only allow one language

  Indeed. Probably something we can raise every time we see it

  How do you tag a language

    If you’re on the standard web interface, you can select the language whenever you make a post. If you’re using an app, this would be app-specific.
