Don't change anything. I would wish the HN crowd would not be "Only the US exists" but it is what it is. Left a dozen times b/c of hate comments over the last decades, but always came back (with different accounts) because there are comments that are gold nuggets.
Try browsing HN at different times of day. As someone living in the EU, I honestly don't see HN as being all that user-centric. I attribute it to the fact that I browse when most USians are asleep, Earth being spherical-ish and timezones being what they are.
