The German speaking Steemians have agreed on #deutsch as main tag, since #de stands for Germany, while users in Austria #at and Switzerland #ch also speak German, and would regard this #de as a typical German paternalism.

P.S.: Tag it with #kr otherwise our korean community will not find the post ;-)

Haha wait so he didn't even research the actual tags these user use? SMH

Why should languages be in tags at all? Wouldn't the language be better in the metadata of the post and have hivemind support? This seems a bit short sighted

I would happily try to get SteemPeak.com to support a language field in the posting/display mechanics and allow a user a default. I think this is a much better solution than threats.

I'm done waiting for frontends to do something about it.

Literally no one has asked us that i can remember.

I guess that's on the project list now?

No one has still asked us for this technically... transisto seems to be implementing his own system of sorts

I'm asking for it :)

Flagged for abusing the language tags.
This post is not in Korean nor French.

yeah, can't use #tag in body without them showing up as tags

@transisto friend I don't want to shown you down. Just said not understand, but i want to understand.
If you get hurts for that, I apologize. Take it easy Man.
Thanks.

What if the post uses a tag that implies the language? For example, when communities is released, it will be possible to set the language for the community. In a sense, the community tag could be used to derive the language.

I don't think he's aware they exist.

Is English the official language of the Steem blockchain?

No, That's just me saying I won't downvote for that reason.

It seems so, but I would prefer diversity on this platform.

This can work when multiple languages in one tag. But of a tag is dedicated to a certain language, matching the language and the tag at condensor level will work better. Good idea.

As far as I know many Indonesian speakers use #indonesia as tag. Which is logical, because in Indonesian, we called our language with same name: Indonesia.

Who came up with such silly tags which clearly indicate the "who" has no idea about certain languages? @transisto

Is this an official announcement for the community which language tags to be used? Otherwise the big boys are downvoting wrong usage? I am confused! Or shall I say baffled by posts with no meaning (nothing new though....)

Let me wait until I post again with forbidden #deutsch tag - will flag myself then.

Deutsch is in the list

hmmm I only see #de #ger #deu or #german - the real tag Germans use aka #deutsch is not included in the post at least- but no worries.

I'm assuming standards will emerge before tag collision happens
