There's been a start to this in the steemit.com github for a while now and I'm not sure why it's not been implemented yet myself.

I think that is only the language for UI?

I meant that users should be able to specify in what languages the posts are written that they see here. If user doesn't understand Chinese or Spanish, it's just unnecessary noise to show posts in those languages to them. The problem will become even bigger in the future when other languages start to become popular.

Ah I thought that's what your second point was about but I understand now.
