Seemingly the functionality for setting languages is never used, and a large portion of my new feed is from instances that are language specific (and not the language I speak).
I have set my language to English + Undefined, but it seems no one else can/will set their languages for their posts (leaving them as undefined).
I would like to bulk add these to my blocked instance. I know how to do this.
My question is just - is there a list of instance + language covering the main federated instances?

You can select language, topics, sort style.
wonderful, thanks
A number of apps do not allow for language selection when posting or commenting.
Many instances are mixed language. Feddit.org for example is mainly German communities for now but is officially a German/English instance and one of the largest communities is c/Europe, which is in English. Blocking whole instances will block many English communities as well. Though I get that that might be an acceptable trade-off to get rid of a flood of posts you don’t understand.
It’s a shame the language selection doesn’t work on many apps.
The main filter includes language.
