I tried to make a post to [email protected], but received an error message about not being able to post in this language to this community. Is there a setting I need to change in the app for language? I can’t seem to find one.

Yup there is a problem overall with the concept of language in lemmy…and memmy doesn’t let us choose the language of the post/comment. There is no workaround that I’ve heard of yet, you have to post through the website
