I just checked the github page and it seems this bug is low priority:

Memmy does sometimes not let you post or comment due to a weird bug that thinks you‘re posting in the wrong language.

I just want to point out that I‘ve had this bug twice so far and others (maybe many) will have it too which severely hinders the growth of lemmy at this critical time.

If someone reads this who has any clout, stuff like this is what can trip a promising platform like this. Exponential growth and all.

Have a good one.

    It’s not a Memmy bug. It’s moderators configuring their community settings incorrectly

      Thank you for answering. Can you elaborate on that please? Because there is exactly 1 field where you can choose your language in a community, which allows for 3 options (in my case) which is german, english or undetermined.

      I chose english.

      There is no explanation to wether I should choose something else.

      So let me rephrase that for you:

      It is no fault of the moderators but of lemmy creators not making this clear.

      And yes I find it insulting to make it mods fault choosing english as their subs language.
