    Did you notice that one of my SOTD posts wasn’t visible by some people? @[email protected] did! I changed some language settings for the instance, which should clear up any future “hidden” posts.

    I believe the problem was that I had enabled a couple of languages for the instance – “undetermined”, and “english”. My profile had the same two languages selected. When I made my post, I must have selected “English” as the language, which was allowed per the instances settings. DJ likely didn’t have “English” as a selected language for his account, and therefor it wasn’t shown.

    That’s my guess, anyway.

    So, the settings are now set to “undetermined” as the only language. When anyone makes a post, there should be no options in the “language” dropdown, and all posts should be visible so long as their profile has the default “undetermined” selected.

      It’s odd. It seems to be that as long a I have “undetermined” set for me, I should see messages in every language.

      Anyway, it now works, so that’s good

      Edit: Nope, “undetermined” isn’t a catch-all for every language, but literally matches only posts where the language is undetermined. Think of “undetermined” as a language, and if you also want to see English/Français/Whatever, you need to allow them too in your profile settings
