"language_not_allowed" error when trying to submit a comment using Jerboa. (sh.itjust.works)

I was trying to reply to a Taco Tuesday post and no matter what I replied, I got a popup which said, "language_not_allowed".

Looks like placeholder text that was never filled in. What is that error trying to say?

I initially posted this:

Fish tacos are my favorite. Crunchy coleslaw, beer battered cod, a big ol' scoop of sambal oelek, and I'm in heaven.

I removed the "sambal olek" because it's a foreign language, but I got the same error. It persisted even when trying to post "just testing".

Any ideas?

This is not about the content, but about the language setting on the post. If you didn't configure it on your account it is probably left as "undefined", which gets blocked on certain instances. Go to your profile, change the default language to eg English, and try then.

There are two settings: Interface language, and then a list of languages you choose to see. "Unspecified" and English were already on as languages I see, and I turned off German and another so I stop seeing those posts. I don't see what my "interface" language has to do with commenting, though.

I found another thread in which I had problems replying, and it turns out the comments to which I could not reply were all from kbin users.
