I blocked all the German instances because I couldn't understand them anyway.

Edit:

Apparently a solution to the problem offends them lmao, didn't realize me seeing posts I can't comprehend was so important to these goofballs.

I don't have time energy or fucks to give when it comes to that sorry, it's nothing against German I took German in highschool but I'm not trying to do that just so I can doomscroll in another language

多好的主意 !

[–] Zaphod@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 month ago

As a German, completely understandable

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 5 points 1 month ago

You have just made an enemy for life or until I get bored of it.

Nimm es nicht persönlich, dass alle Deutschen hier im Faden dich beleidigen oder einfach anfangen, Deutsch zu schreiben, obwohl du Angelsachse bist. Es ist eher eine Art Maimai, auch wenn du natürlich Deutsch lernen solltest und diese Kommentarsektion nun Eigentum der BRD ist.

Sadly I'm not allowed to speak English since it's forbidden by the German-ich_iel-internet-law, also known as Sprich Deutsch du Hurensohn.

Artikuliere auf deutsch, du Sohn einer Fachfrau für Selbstvermarktung

Ich dachte das nennt sich Geschlechtsteilvermietungsfachpersonnachkomme?

Mieten sind i.d.R. nicht so kurzfristig, weshalb die bevorzugte Bezeichnung "Geschlechtsteildienstleistungsfachpersonalabstämmling" ist. Ebenso versichert "Abstämmling" im Gegensatz zu "Nachkomme" die leibliche Verwandtschaft.

You're missing out on the English communities on the German instances then.

[–] Rogueostrich@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Maybe but I think I'll be ok not wading through hundreds of posts I can't understand, I wouldn't expect someone who doesn't understand English to do it with American posts.

If that's how someone else wants to spend their time more power to them, I do not have time for that unfortunately.

[–] Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You can just block German communities.

[–] Rogueostrich@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Ah I see there has been a miscommunication. I do block communities not entire instances I'm not actually aware of a way to block the whole thing I tried to do it to the furries but I didn't see a way so I had to do it one by one, I'm not a Lemmy pro I just use Voyager and scroll it like it's reddit since it's better.

[–] Hubi@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago

Not sure where the setting is on Voyager, but there is an instance filter in the profile settings in the browser. It blocks all posts from the instance, but not the users or comments in other communities.

[–] WhiteHotaru@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

You could just set your language to English only.

[–] LumpyPancakes@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I did the same. Will do until the apps integrate translation.

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Will do until I get bored with Lemmy altogether

That's German humour

Tja, keine Maimais für dich du doofmann

[–] LesserAbe@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Google translates this as "no mail for you" is that correct? Does mail here mean any kind of communication?

I do like learning "doofmann" since where I'm from you might call someone a doof if they're stupid.

[–] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There is a typo. It's supposed to mean "no memes for you."

[–] Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Was sind diese "memes"?

[–] Hubi@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago

Doof is German for dumb, so the meaning seems to transcend languages.
