Stop downvoting foreign languages posts. Just use the language filter.
Stop downvoting foreign languages posts. Just use the language filter.
Constantly users from lemmy.world and lemm.ee are downvoting posts in languages other than english.
If you do not understand and don't wanna see it just use the filters.
Go to settings and select the languages you know, plus "undetermined". That's it.
people who are seeing this, plese let your instances admins know of this problem and comunicate the instance users.
Thanks

On social networks for a long time, with excellent translators available, I don't really care what language a post is written in. In this way I have found a lot of information, new things and very interesting contributions, which I would have missed by using filters.
If the inbuid translator in your browser isn't enough, these are anyway better (both FOSS). Maybe the best ones you can find. both multi-engine, full customizable. Translate full page, selection, words, inverse translation, more than 120 lenguages.

I prefer translators too. Reading materials from different languages (including English) gave me a different insight.
That's the point. If you only read posts in your own lenguage, you miss 90% of the information in the web.
