As a noob this is likely me, but I tried to start a community on another server and I can’t see the post (my other account used to make said community) made and set as english. Unless it’s just me being a noob, that can’t be good. A cursory look seems to confirm that I can’t see anything aside from “Undetermined”.
From what I can tell, “Undetermined” is the recommended setting for all users and communities for that reason. It’s a little unintuitive.
No, one should select all languages one can speak including undetermined. Without the options for English or other languages one cannot see posts in that language.
As far as I can tell, it’s recommended, since you otherwise don’t see posts made in other language settings, including those that are Undetermined.
There are probably some communities that were made without a fixed language setting, or were created before it, that don’t have a language marked, and as such, if you don’t pick “Undetermined”, it may not be possible to see those posts.
The results are still the same, not having other options as a user makes any external communities lose content. Is there a way to keep the local stuff as it is, but giving users more languages to choose from?
