Wanting to use Lemmy (or knowing about it at all) is pretty much a symptom of us thinking about the platforms we use, not just their content, which we tend to do much more because we usually dive deeper into subjects than the average neurotypical person. Plus, a lot of autistic people tend to have stronger moral principles since we tend to see things more black and white.

There’s also the fact that in smaller communities, minorities tend to feel safer. The chances of seeing people being openly ableist here is almost none compared to Reddit for example

 

I’ve been loving Memmy so far, but recent versions have brought the Brazilian Portuguese translation and my app has automatically changed to that. However I cannot find a way to revert it back to English!

I’ve tried looking in the app settings and also on the iPhone settings app, but no luck. My account on Lemmy is set to English, but my phone language is set to Brazilian Portuguese. I’m using the App Store version.

As for the reason I prefer English: 100% of the content I see here is in English, so having the UI in a different language makes my head have to constantly switch between both which can get tiring. Not to mention there’s a ton of overflowing text issues as it’s understandably not been tested as much.

Thanks!
