A quick search tells me there is a feature you are supposed to be able to access that lets you filter on language. Beyond that it seems you need an instance. its not hard to run a private one really. Or you can find one that aligns with what you would want to see. This is often how it was done with useenet. you would find a BBS that filtered (or not) what you got. Some even allowed you some ability to pick later on.
The problem with the language filter is that I think it requires the person posting to select their language every time they post a comment or post. I looked at the language filter in my Lemmy settings and it says "if you don't select undetermined, you won't see most content"
agree, there need to be more tools there are a number of issue posts on these things on github, if you look for "lemmy github" youll find the UI and server repos, on the issues tab you can search for your issue and then upvote/show your support. If something you want is not there or is broken and not listed, post it up.
I think the only way some of this is going to get done is if its cataloged and clear people want/need it.
