I keep getting error:

Problem posting your comment. Please select a language in your lemmy profile settings.

I was able to reply to comments before, but not anymore. Why??

    I had to go back to my home instance on my desktop, go to account settings, choose my language.

    Then went to the post I was trying to comment on, it asked me before I posted to pick a language, choose the one you picked for your profile.

    Then I was able to use voyager again with no issues.

    Edit: while trying to post this comment, I had to do it again. Weird.

      I always get this when replying to kbin users. No fix but log into the main Lemmy ui instead of voyager

        I believe that’s it. That’s what I noticed when it happened to first time is that I was replying in a kbin instance.

          In this case, the OP author wasn’t Kbin, but the language of the main post was set as Undetermined (or not set). So replying to it had the same issue as replying to Kbin users. I wrote up a bit more detail in my reply to the OP.
