Lemmy already has a feature where you can define the language of a post and potentially filter by that property, but it's pretty much useless because most just leave it on "Undetermined". I believe clients should make a best effort guess about the language (maybe based on a dictionary analysis of the text body or WHOIS of a linked website) and offer it as the default choice instead.
Can't mods remove "undetermined" from the list of options for a community, forcing posters to set the language when they post?
