When browsing popular, I’d like to only see instances that speak my language because I can’t read the posts that are made on that instance.
When I block the instance, it blocks the users too. So when a user from that instance replies to a comment, I get a notification with a link that doesn’t lead anywhere.
Is there a way to filter the instance/posts without filtering out their users too?
Tried the search function but didn’t see a post like this
In your settings you can set the languages you want to read. Posts in any other languages will be hidden.
Doesn’t this only work if they (OP’s of posts) have selected a language?
Yes. I expect users on non-English instances are quite careful about this because if they don’t then most people using their language won’t see their content.
