Gregory's Server@youronlyone Tried that, but people complained they did not want to see German posts. (maybe they did not set up the filter on their end)?

@Tutanota Yep, more likely they haven't explored that feature. Or, they are using a fediverse software and/or app that doesn't have language filters; or doesn't use their account's language filter settings.
In any case, it's going to be a challenge. For one, you're in the mastodon.social instance which is limited to 500 characters. If multiple languages in one post will be your chosen strategy, you may have to transfer to a different instance with 1,000 or even 2,000-character limit.
Or, maybe just post in English, since your reach and market is global.
Another option is, keep separate accounts. You can take advantage of mastodon.social's twin server, mastodon.online. ;)
