I think the idea of assigning a language to a post is great. However, I always use the english language. I’d like to know if there’s a way to automatically tag all my posts as english, instead of manually selecting it.

Some communities seem to default to english even I don’t set anything but unfortunately others do not.

    I had a userscript that had this feature built in, alongside enabling ⌘+Enter posting on MacOS, but then my pull request that fixed that in lemmy itself got merged, and I haven’t gotten around to just separating the functionality.

    I’ll probably do that tomorrow and edit this post with the link.

    Edit: here’s the userscript. You’re going to want to disable the fastPost configuration option if you’re on a new enough lemmy instance, and you’ll also want to set the language to whatever your home instance has the language you want in. The readme in the repo has instructions on how to do it.

    The closest I’ve gotten is removing every language except for English and Undetermined which removes it from all the dropdowns. Presuming you’re not the owner of lemmy.world, I do not believe there is a way to achieve even that stopgap.
