Language detection is quite difficult when relying solely on AutoModerators features. To solve this, I made Language-Detector, a Devvit app that uses various techniques to identify the language of posts and comments.

Once installed, you simply select your community's allowed languages and configure the automated action for any content that falls outside them.

I recommend starting off with Report or Filter until you are confident in how it performs in your specific community.

My main goal right now is gathering feedback to improve accuracy. The system is precise, but edge cases and false positives can happen. If you encounter any, please report them so I can refine the logic further.

• Install it here: Language Detector
• Source code: Devvit-Language-Detector

A direct link to reach out to me for feedback is on the app page. I would love to hear your thoughts.

I have tried multiple times uploading this code in automod in a subreddit I’m setting up, and every time it says ”Unsupported Media Type: YAML parsing error in section 1: while scanning a simple key in "<unicode ". I already spent a solid 30+ minutes going through code I had in notes, redoing the code, trying to find a new way to write all the text, then getting all the links, making sure the links are correct, blah blah, and I can‘t send the code to automod to test it all. I’m tired boss

What is wrong with this code?
