@Sphinx I think if you want to use a different language, and might get responses from here or from other instances, that would be ok.
Seen a lot of people posting in Indian character sets, not sure which language it is, but there's lots of Japanese and Chinese posts on the Federated feed too.
@Sphinx @freemo You are welcome.
Yeah, the Translate button on post in twitter is something I miss. Worked amazingly well for Japanese posts I was curious about, and able to reply to after reading translation.
But to have that in Mastodon would have to come from the development team, I imagine. (not an add on or plugin)
