hello, I am curious as to why I occasionally get the language_not_allowed error when posting to certain sub’s. its in English, and it wasn’t offensive or not-allowed. (I promise!) I’m still trying to figure out the federated system so maybe I’m doing something wrong for all I know. Are others getting this error?

Thanks for your help.

    When you create a community, you set the allowed languages. If you don’t select any of the languages, it says it may cause problems, maybe this is it?

    I’m also new, so just figuring it out. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can correct me.

    On Reddit, a well used way to get the correct answer was to post an incorrect one ;)

      I’ve tried specifying a language but it refuses to post. Just infinite loading. What could that be about?

        I’d guess servers are falling over with a lot more requests than normal following spez’s klutzing
