Wondering what the best practice would be on for people talking in more languages.

I don't like to have my timeline spammed with languages I don't understand, so would avoid writing in another language here. So what, making another account? Would be useful to have "subchannels", like does, so that one may just follow my English posts.

Any thought on the matter? What would you consider the best practice here?

@arteteco Well, i don't know if everybody, but maybe someone is following your account even if english is not their mother tongue. Just silence them (it can be done in GNUSocial, i guess in Mastodon too) so you don't see their toots, but they can see yours. Just a thought.

@ai I don't really see the point in silencing someone who is following me. Maybe you mean a case where we both follow each other?
What I'd like to do is follow that profile but only for the languages I understand, like Italian Spanish and English, but there is no way to specifically set the language of the toots/status, only for the whole account (at least in mastodon/pleroma, not sure about GS)

@arteteco Yes, you are right, we didn't catch the context. And no, as far as we know, you can't do that on GS. Y lo que dices estaría bien para algunas cuentas que seguimos en japonés/inglés :)
