Spotted elsewhere, but worth a toot. #LifeHacks #2025 edition:
* If #PeterThiel is involved, avoid it
* If it's #opt_in , it'll be #mandatory soon
* If #AI is involved, it is #profiling you
* If #BigTech says it's for safety, it isn't
* If it demands a #facialscan walk away
* If it's "for your safety", it likely won't end well for you

Do you regularly post on #Mastodon in different #languages? Do you (like me, too) often forget to set the post's language accordingly before publishing it?

Would you thus like the possibility (strictly #opt_in #optIn, of course) to force yourself to consciously select the language before you can publish?

I filed a #featureRequest #feature_request for just that: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/21631

Add option "Ask for each post" to the "Posting language" preference setting (and have the post editor behave accordingly) · Issue #21631 · mastodon/mastodon

Pitch In the drop-down at "Preferences" → "Other" → "Posting defaults" → "Posting language", add another special option "Ask for each post". For us...
