Quiet public

@strypey @liaizon꧁ wakest ꧂ I think the reason why Asian developers are underrepresented in the international development of the fediverse is because of the language barrier, and I myself am often unable to participate deeply in discussions due to the language barrier.

Do either of you (or anyone) know of a fediverse app that can auto-translate them into passable English?

The Hackers' Pub I'm building will have automatic translation in the future.

Having attended a hackathon where the working language was Mandarin, I totally understand. Although your English is much, *much* better than my almost nonexistent Mandarin : )

Are there Asian fediverse development communities whose working language is not English? If so, where do they gather? How can we set up bridges between them and the English-speaking dev communities?
