Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Every time I try to create a new post in this community I notice that the post is never created, it keeps on loading forever.

Getting a little more technical, when I use the browser's developer tools analyze the request, I notice that I get a "language not supported" error message with a 400 status code on the response.

Is this intentional or is this a bug?

A bug, I have that from time to time as well. Not sure what to do about it tbh

yeah, I just leave the language field unselected. The strange thing is that I have only noticed it here in this community

Yeah - this community, like some others, only supports 'undetermined' (aka unspecified) as a discussion language. You can see by running:

curl https://lemmy.kde.social/api/v3/community?name=kde | jq .discussion_languages

This gives an array with just '0' as a value. Most other communities would give an array like [0,37] (for Unspecified and English), or [0,47] (for Unspecified and French), etc.

It can be fixed by a moderator - going into the community's settings and using the CTRL key with the mouse to click both Unspecified and English.

Done! Thanks for the hint.

Maybe you try using a VPN to see if it works from another area.
