Can't filter out non-English communities. On any given day, I could scroll through my feed and a third of them would be languages I can't read. I wish I could, but I can't.

I have to block the subcommunities one by one, and then block them again and again for every other instance that hosts that sublemmy

You can set your languages in the settings. As the warning say, make sure to keep "Undetermined" check along English

I use the Connect app to browse Lemmy and I didn't see such a setting. I'm guessing I have to do this on desktop. I haven't logged in through there since I signed up but I'll check it out, thanks.

Personally quite like reading things in other languages, just like a paragraph or so, and then checking my comprehension afterwards with an online translator. Only really partially works for Western European languages though!
