Ayo, is there a way I can filter posts by language on Lemmy or sth? (lemmy.today)

Honestly, I'd miss plenty of content, and some of it great, too. But I can't take opening this damn app anymore and being blasted with US everywhere, even in unrelated communities. I honestly feel sometimes like I should just quit Lemmy, or at least take a long break. But idk what to do in the bathroom lol

I've been really aggressively blocking communities that have stuff I don't want to see. It's been a huge help

That helps, but sometimes the community is more general and the content I don't want shows up anyway. E.g. I've created an account soon as I saw US News & Politics show up, seeing the opportunity to block it. Yet the more general World News frequently has US-specific stuff (fair, I guess, seeing as the US is part of the world, despite them labelling anything not them as "World", e.g. "World Music"). Or US news and politics showing up in Lemmy Shitposts. I enjoy some shitposting. But why???? Can't get a break. At least filtering out English would free me from so much US
