Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

'language_not_allowed' error when commenting (normalcity.life)

I'm having this error most of the time I try to comment. It seems to be because I can't manually select the comment language like I can on the web UI.

You can fix it by switching your interface language in your account settings from Browser Default to English, or whatever language you most often type in.

Not the greatest solution if you're bilingual, though.

Edit: It seems like you can't access that setting from Jerboa, you have to edit that setting on the website.

I already have English checked off in my account settings. It still requires me to choose a language when I'm commenting.

Do you mean you have English checked off in Languages? That's a different setting, you'll need to select a language under Interface Language.

Here's a picture of the Interface Language setting:

Now, if we were talking about the same thing, then yeah I'd have no clue what's going on.

That was totally it. I didn't notice that option until you sent the screenshot.

Can't say I blame you lol. It's really not an obvious setting, glad to hear it solved your issue!
