Most of the posts that are frequently featured in the homepage are about social problems or styles of life common to that country (or most first world countries), and even limit to only United-Statesian media discussion. They do not appeal to someone like me, who has different thoughts, different people, different problems. It’s hard to find something relatable in (most) non-local communities, because it’s just about this style of culture. It doesn’t helps with the poor website discorverability, making me limited to these same repetitive and unfunny posts.

    I can relate to this. But being federated, there are some local instances (not communities) which will have content you can relate to. For example, there was a kerala.party instance (which later mysteriously disappeared from the web) which had lots of memes I could relate to. Maybe you can find an instance with stuff you enjoy: https://join-lemmy.org/instances and https://lemmyverse.net/
