Suggestion: search to Pick the language of the past

I like to pick the language of the post because I assume that helps lemmy to sort posts and suggest the correct language to uses.

Every time I have to scroll so a search bar is my suggestion and picking your favorite languages if you are multi lingual.

The favorite languages should be not limited to a limited number.

I agree, I also try to set the language each time I comment or post. What would be nice would be :

  • to have a default selection based on the post language you are answering to or the language set by the community you're posting on
  • and to show last selected languages first in the drop down list

It's frustrating to scroll a huge list of languages each time I create a post.

There's a related bug. When you edit a post, summit goes back to "unspecified" instead of loading the language set while creating the post.

Huge coincidence but a lot of the requests here are being implemented in the next release. Hope next release will resolve most of the issues brought up in this post/comments.
