Description
The Mastodon web UI sets the language of a reply to the language of the replied-to message. This is good.
Ice Cubes sets even the language of replies to the last-used language. This is annoying for bilingual/multilingual Mastodon users with mixed timelines.
It’s somewhat remedied by its language detection feature, but still annoying.
