My feed is full of posts that are basically just taking up space since I don't understand the language. Is it possible to only have English-language posts? Thanks!

This superscript allows limiting your viewable languages. There are other superscripts too @kbinStyles

I can read german and swedish, but don’t need those magazines to flood my feed either. I would love a filter like that.

I will say it is interesting to see how little time it took for users from those countries to have gathered here.

I've just been blocking the German communities. I'll never be able to interact with them anyway.

[–] CoderKat@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah, same. I'm happy that they have lots of communities, but it is a smidge annoying having to explicitly block every individual German community. Definitely need some profile setting on the long run.

Yeah, I thought of doing that too, but I thought there might be an easier way other than individually blocking them.

Account's setting. Let undetermined for now.

If u have just English and undetermined, no need to block and potentially miss something ^^

That works for lemmy but it doesn't seem to be available on kbin yet.

Hopefully they get to it soon. It's a hassle having to block each German magazine when it appears in all on kbin.
