Interesting to hear of a shared hallucinations. Were either of you under the influence, or (feel free not to answer) have any serious mental health disorders that could explain it?
Good news, Lemmy 18.3 did fix it, no issues replying to you and I didn’t have to manually select my language, it was auto set to English! Hopefully 18.3 gets rolled out to everyone’s instances posthaste!
This is a Lemmy problem. Some communities only allow certain languages. For some reason, some posts and comments can get through on an unsupported language. For example comments from Kbin come through as an Undetermined language (despite have the language selected in Kbin). When you try to reply to these posts or comments, Lemmy will automatically set your reply in the same language, if it is unsupported by the community, you will get this error.
If you go directly to your Lemmy web page (not in Voyager) and try to reply, the Post button will just spin indefinitely. To post successfully, you will need to specifically enter the language in the selector below your comment.
There has been a patch to fix it in Lemmy, but I’m not sure when that will filter done to our instances. Voyager are tracking the issue here.
When I first bought the speakers/displays they seemed to be releasing software updates at a quick pace, but it seems like they have slowed to a crawl. Classic Google to abandon products to move onto the next shiny thing.
Over the last year or so there was big cuts to the Google Assistant teams, and then they merged the Assistant and Bard teams together.
Personally, I’ve recently had issues with one of mine not turning off the display at night. I was also really disappointed when they stopped integrating with third party shopping list apps. My devices are definitely less useful now.
Thanks for looking into it. I did find the debug console setting while I was poking around earlier. It needs to connect to a PC so I’ll give it a go tomorrow.
