One way to help Nostr grow would to make it easier to find content in languages you speak. Damus and others have nifty ‘translate this note’ features but there’s something different from the way people speak in their own langauge.

Nostr already has the nips for this: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/32.md

We can easily add tags to events which would let clients request only events in a specific language, or set of languages. But do any clients write out the language tag and do any use it in the UI for helping people discover content in their own langauge?

I’m thinking of this because most Brazilians prefer to talk to people in their own language, Brazilian Portuguese (yes it’s different written language than Portuguese du Portugal).

It’d be so cool to have on boarding which saw that a user is in Brazil, or has their device set to pt-br and then show them primarily content in their own language. This is also true of Thai, Japanese, and Chinese which also have big sets of Nostr users. The latter two seem to use custom local Nostr clients to avoid this problem. I’m not sure what Thai users do. I know that although I speak Spanish, and there are lots of hispanohablantes on Nostr, we mostly seem to write in English. That’s because it’s hard to filter out by language community except for who you choose to put in your contact list.

So, what Nostr clients do this well? How do get clients writing these language tags in their posts and make it so clients then display / use them for users.
