A potential downside is that anything you did on Reddit might be tied to anything you do here. Given enough posts you can eventually dox a person

I’m struggling to see how it even makes sense. Personally I can read 2 languages and kinda a couple more if I try. And google translate can do the rest pretty well. I struggle to think why I wouldn’t want tonat least see posts regardless of language, seems like separating people for a silly reason. Maybe I’m weird. It will be interesting to see how this part works out.

Meh, beehaw seemed promising until they unilaterally decided to cut off large parts of lemmy. I get why, but I moved to another server because I want to control my own experience

Tbh I feel like the language attribute is poorly implemented in lemmy, or at least in the client interfaces I’ve used. Why is it necessary at all?

for PCs you can just add a hosts file entry, but that’s probably not possible/too much work on phones. split horizon DNS is what you want.
