Keep Seeding (lemmy.one)

A few months ago I grabbed this torrent from rarbg, and it took weeks to download. Often going days with no seeders.

I finally got it, and decided I'd seed beyond my usual 2x to help others get this. Then rarbg went under, and now I think I'll just keep this one going.

can you come back and tag this post with the correct language? would be neat

I'm trying but the save button just loops endlessly..

What difference does it make? Aren't you able to see the comment?

It's not so huge a concern right now, but it lets people that write userscripts write, say, a userscript to automatically translate a post into your preferred language from the post's language.

Such a thing would be easier if the userscript could trust that a post is set to the language it's written in.

This load circle thing is it implicitly failing due to you not having selected Deutsch as one of your languages in your profile (most likely).

There are other things it could be as well.

Interesting! I tried it a bit more:

I had "Undetermined", "Deutsch" and "English" selected in my profile.
I was able to set the comment to "Undetermined", but then still not able to set it to "Deutsch" (back to "English", worked though)
Changing the word "homie" didn't make a difference
Other comments set to "Undetermined" were able to switch to "Deutsch"
Other comments set to "English" (that were actually written in english) were able to switch to "Deutsch"

Seems like it's a problem with this comment in particular, but I can't figure out why!

Edit: I found another comment set to "Deutsch", written in german, that can't be changed no matter what.

I only really write in one language so I don't have this problem, I just default to English.

But it's interesting that some posts are hard to change.

If you are going throught feddit.de there might be limitations on the languages you can select for comments. I think only German and undetermined are possible there.

How do you tag a comment with a language? Wasn‘t aware that that‘s a thing.

At least on the web browser version of lemmy, there is a dropdown box below where you write a reply, that says "Select language" by default.
