I think more regional / city instances would be great. Seems like a natural way to consolidate activity around local content, meetups, activism, etc etc while also staying totally connected to everything else
That's actually a great idea
Only if we get the ability to block instances as users.
There are quite a lot of posts on my Hot page in languages I don't speak. It'd be nice to be able to block instances that mostly communicate in languages I don't speak anyways.
You can select which languages you want to see in your Lemmy settings. Of course, this currently require people to tag their post with the correct language.
Which is not happening right now. I ha r three languages selected, I still get tons of other languages in my feed.
I think it's because most people don't select a language. Hopefully one day Lemmy will automatically detect the language, or let us select a default one :)
