Can you explain what you mean with this? I don't understand it.
When submitting, you can specify the language your post or comment is in.
Communities can set which languages they accept posts in. This community currently only accepts "Undetermined" as an option so I can't state my reply is written in English. Other users can use this tag to filter out languages they don't read, allow them to know what language they need to translate from, or possibly help accessibility tools read comments correctly to people that need assistive technologies like screen-readers, etc.
I haven't moderated a community on Lemmy to know exactly where/how the settings to configure this work, and it's not a big deal either way to me personally, but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to enable some options there.
So I should check for every community
English
andUndetermined
?At the end of the day, you're the moderator of this community, so it's entirely up to you. I was really just being a bit of a smart-arse in my first comment.
If it were my decision, I'd probably just allow all the options, assuming it's the same as the languages box in user settings. Users that aren't aware of the language filtering are gonna be using Undetermined though, so it's best to keep that one for community visibility.
