    Sometimes I notice a post with strange title and from curiosity I click it, but it turns out to be in non-English language.

    Is there a possibility of implementing following feature?

    Python implementation (cause why not):

    # Emojis
    lang_marks = {
    "IT": "🇮🇹",
    "DE": "🇩🇪",
    "FR": "🇫🇷",
    "GR", "🇬🇷",
    "ESP": "🇪🇸"
    }

    if post.category.lower() == "regional":
    lang = lang_marks[post.subcategory.upper()]
    else:
    lang = "EN"

    feed.add_post(post, language = lang)

    That exactly how non-english speaking users feel about english titles. Use google translate.

    this seems like a non issue to me, as someone who only speaks english. i can tell by the fact i don't understand the words when a post is going to be in a different language, or if not and i click on it i've wasted all of a few seconds. or i can use google translate. just seems like, redundant to me. the german words indicate its german already, or whichever language.
