I've had to block so many German Lemmy's. It's frustrating because I can tell it's a good article and I believe European news more than US news now.

I need to not only learn the language but learn the culture so I can understand what I can only assume are fire memes
Good choice. Nobody who speaks German could be an evil man.
As a side benefit, you will also be able to converse with Kim Jong-un, Vladimir Putin, and Robert Terwilliger.

Also learn everything about Linux so I can get all these Linux memes that keep popping up. And learn to program so I can get all the programmer memes.
I've been doing German on Duolingo for over a year and I can get about 20% of the content they post, so I'm pretty happy to have an actual use for the work I put in.
I never see any German posts, what am I doing wrong?
Go to your profile settings. There should be a list of languages you can select. Depending on the interface you use, Ctrl+Click may do the trick of selecting multiple languages. Then save.

You guys are aware you can filter by language in the settings of your Lemmy account, right?
I wasn't! Thanks for the clue!

Ich habe vier Jahre auf Deutsch gelernt, aber mein Deutsch ist sehr schlecht.
Honestly, I couldn't even remember if Deutsch was feminine, masculine, or neuter... but my pronunciation has always been spot on at least. I should just pick it back up, it'd be mostly vocab grind for me at this point. But I last learned years and years ago... dang, almost 18 years now.
Articles in German make no real sense honestly. Deutsch is neuter, but since it's mostly an adjective the article is that of the accompanied noun. The German language is female, the German court neuter and the German football field is male (the stadium is neuter though)
