I blocked all the German instances because I couldn't understand them anyway.
Edit:
Apparently a solution to the problem offends them lmao, didn't realize me seeing posts I can't comprehend was so important to these goofballs.
Get good and learn a little German you silly American
I don't have time energy or fucks to give when it comes to that sorry, it's nothing against German I took German in highschool but I'm not trying to do that just so I can doomscroll in another language
You have just made an enemy for life or until I get bored of it.
你应该学学外语吧。
Gesundheit!
谢谢！I just learned to use “应该” from you haha. I wouldn’t mind seeing more random Chinese around here!
多好的主意 !
我本来打算学一些德语，但是，我也懂英语，我当看到你的 Username 的时候，我也在想：“这管你屁事？”
还有，我没有用翻译的软件。
(I was going to learn some German, but, I also know English, and when I saw your Username, I was thinking: "This is none of your bussiness"
Also, I did not use translation tools for this, can you say the same?)
😉
As a German, completely understandable
Nimm es nicht persönlich, dass alle Deutschen hier im Faden dich beleidigen oder einfach anfangen, Deutsch zu schreiben, obwohl du Angelsachse bist. Es ist eher eine Art Maimai, auch wenn du natürlich Deutsch lernen solltest und diese Kommentarsektion nun Eigentum der BRD ist.
Sadly I'm not allowed to speak English since it's forbidden by the German-ich_iel-internet-law, also known as Sprich Deutsch du Hurensohn.
Richtig so.
That's German humour
Artikuliere auf deutsch, du Sohn einer Fachfrau für Selbstvermarktung
Ich dachte das nennt sich Geschlechtsteilvermietungsfachpersonnachkomme?
You're missing out on the English communities on the German instances then.
Maybe but I think I'll be ok not wading through hundreds of posts I can't understand, I wouldn't expect someone who doesn't understand English to do it with American posts.
If that's how someone else wants to spend their time more power to them, I do not have time for that unfortunately.
You can just block German communities.
An I see there has been a miscommunication. I do block communities not entire instances I'm not actually aware of a way to block the whole thing I tried to do it to the furries but I didn't see a way so I had to do it one by one, I'm not a Lemmy pro I just use Voyager and scroll it like it's reddit since it's better.
Not sure where the setting is on Voyager, but there is an instance filter in the profile settings in the browser. It blocks all posts from the instance, but not the users or comments in other communities.
You could just set your language to English only.
I did the same. Will do until the apps integrate translation.
Will do until I get bored with Lemmy altogether
Your loss.
Tja, keine Maimais für dich du doofmann
Google translates this as "no mail for you" is that correct? Does mail here mean any kind of communication?
I do like learning "doofmann" since where I'm from you might call someone a doof if they're stupid.
Doof is German for dumb, so the meaning seems to transcend languages.
There is a typo. It's supposed to mean "no memes for you."
Was sind diese "memes"?
