I can confirm that this is still an issue with tokodon 24.12.2 and that I would also want to see implemented a solution like the proposed one (search and alphabetical sorting) A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/network/tokodon/-/merge_requests/731 Git commit 96be8745c6ea52dd99f640d4c19ce23b1344a0b3 by Joshua Goins. Committed on 27/04/2025 at 20:55. Pushed by redstrate into branch 'master'. Show both the localized and native name of a language in the selector This is only half of what we need to do in the selector to make it more usable, but I encountered some problems when integrating a search field. This should still be a modest improvement, though. M +8 -2 src/editor/languagemodel.cpp https://invent.kde.org/network/tokodon/-/commit/96be8745c6ea52dd99f640d4c19ce23b1344a0b3 I'd be great if one could also "favourite" some languages so they appear "on top". This is actually how apps like Fedilab do it, to the extreme to which you can only select from those "favourited" languages.

Tokodon already does this, but the UX isn't super obvious (related to this issue I guess 😅) Tokodon will put the UI languages at the top, so if you have your system set to "German, French, fallback to English" then it would put those at the top. Mastodon has a preferred posting language, I need to double-check if we can read/write that. |
