Seems like new joiners don’t automatically get all the languages displayed, as it used to be. For Jlai.lu, they only had French. Is this something that can be configured admin-side?

Update: a fix should be available in the coming days

      It’s really messy, especially with the new wave of people coming here. Lemmy made good progress since the last wave, but this should really be addressed.

          Easiest is probably a checkbox selected by default “All languages”

          • if it’s checked, the languages selection is greyed out
          • if you uncheck, you can start selecting

              Hey, if you want, I have made a Firefox add-on to automayically remember your last selected language in your posts and comments and auto select it next time! Give it a try! It doesn’t really improve much but it’s still something!

                Oh nice! Did you already post in on !lemmyapps@lemmy.world ? It could probably be helpful for a few people!

                  I did not know about it, so I just posted it there! Thanks for the heads up!

                  It’s actually not to set your account languages (like the options in your user settings) but to set your post and comment languages, instead of always being “unspecified” by default now it’ picks your prevoius language picked on your last post or comment!
