I beg you fedizens, set the correct language on your posts! I'd love to be able to understand what you're saying in your native language by using the translation option.

@alxsim This also helps translate alt text in images, powerful feature, especially when the images contain text!

@Alexis Simon To my best knowledge, this is a feature that only Mastodon has.

But the Fediverse is not only Mastodon. I'm not on Mastodon myself. I'm on Hubzilla which has nothing to do with Mastodon, and which has been developed independently from Mastodon since over five years before Mastodon was launched.

And while Hubzilla has features that are completely unimaginable even for seasoned Mastodon veterans, it does not have per-post language setting.

So no, I can't set any language for my posts, comments and DMs.
