Hello,

I would like to suggest an improvement to the way lists handle hashtags.

Currently, when I follow a hashtag in a list (for example, #Podcast), the feed includes posts in many different languages. Since I only understand a limited number of languages, this makes the feed much less relevant.

It would be very useful to add a language filter to the existing list filtering options, alongside the current filters such as sorting by the most liked or most shared posts.

The proposed functionality would allow users to:

select one or more languages to display for posts coming from hashtags (for example, English and French);
continue using the existing filters (most liked, most shared, etc.);
hide hashtag posts written in languages that are not selected.

An important point: this language filter should apply only to posts discovered through hashtags. It should not affect posts from followed accounts or profiles that have been added to the list, which should continue to appear regardless of their language.

This enhancement would significantly improve the relevance of hashtag-based lists, especially for international topics, while preserving the current behavior for followed accounts.

Thank you for considering this feature request.
