Just gonna throw this out here - any Ruby gem for relatively quick & accurate language detection that you know of?

I didn't expect anyone to think I am asking for a General AI.

I just want semi-accurate heuristic to spare users having to tag language manually.

Proprietary APIs like Google Translate are out of the question. Already using WhatLanguage, it's not working well. If I can't find anything, welp, there's that. Not a big deal.

@Gargron I'm actually planning on running a project (self-funded) to attempt to detect dominant languages on public Mastodon instances, as part of Radar.
