 Talking to spanish nostr users there’s a frustration in finding other hispanoparlantes on here. In someways it’s and easier prospect than finding other communities. At the moment we don’t tag posts by language but it would be easy to add the tags and filter queries by them.

 I asked Spanish language nostr for relays and I did not receive relays in return.

In Damus there’s a relay sets for Thai, German, and Japanese users. 

Maybe there is some other way we could explore in the future. Algostore of DVM with output of notes only in language X.

 The @Reportinator bot labels nostr content based on moderation filters. I could see a similar bot adding language detection lables. It’d be better if it were included in the original message at publish time but a labeling bot would work.

 Nice - this would be an excellent task for a bot. 

@JeffG have you considered adding language labels version of ontolo?

 Yeah. I had thought about it. I think there are probably pretty good language detection algos out there that could do auto labeling though. Anyone into #ai or #ml know what the state of the art is in that area?

 One years ago we was talking about this exact matter and I proposed a tag to classify the language, but there was different opinions and many preferred the relay approach.
I suppose we can now use NIP-32 to label notes using ISO 639-1.
