Maybe a different approach would be a way to specify which languages you are able to read. There are plenty of users who are multilingual might want to see posts in several languages.
I think the problem is that on some/?all instances the default language is set to either undefined or English. I've noticed its undefined on lemmy that I have used, while on Kbin it's set to the language I set to read - English. So if people don't change the language they will be posting undefined text or in English inadvertently.
My account is set to show undefined and English posts only but I'm seeing a lot of German content.
We're working with alfa and beta software.
Ideally the mods could set the default language on the magazine/community, there are a few english communities on feddit.de
And with prefs you could select to hide certain languages.
