So if I’ve selected two languages in my settings, if I see language outside those selections can I assume that is because their language settings aren’t set properly or have I stuffed up a setting?

When making a post in Lemmy, specifying a language is optional, which causes many many posts to have useless language metadata.

They're not that keen on fixing it, either - https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2317

Thanks rimu appreciate your responses. I just assumed as I don’t see any on my Aussie.zone account but they just may be federated with less instances or something.

Oh shit so it’s a proper well known issue. Guess I just got super lucky previously. Thanks for the link!
