I think it’s very unclear what this error message wants me to do.

It happens for example if I try to comment on a post from kbin.social when I’m logged in to lemmy.world.

Where in “lemmy” am I supposed to update my settings?

I’ve set any language setting I can on my kbin.social profile, lemmy.world profile, and in the Voyager app.

    I’ve noticed this behavior outside Voyager as well.

    After I logged into the Lemmy instance on which the OP was hosted (which happened to be the instance on which I was logged into Voyager), I noticed there was a language drop down menu from which I could choose a language that describes the language of my comment.

    It’s not populated with languages if I only select ‘undetermined’ in my account, the drop down meny only allowed ‘undetermined’. When I selected all possible languages, the drop down menu showed all those options.

    When I chose ‘undetermined’ I couldn’t post a comment in the web-interface either. But after I chose the language of the OP, the comment could be submitted. After that, the comments on the same OP could be submitted from Voyager as well.

    I think there’s something strange going on with Lemmy and/or instance settings.
