I don't have a Reddit account but every day, Popular has a bunch of subreddits in a different language, Indian subreddits, or weird smut.
Thought it was just me since I'm not logged in.

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

India has nearly a billion internet users. Some content will be popular on a global level because of that. Filter by whatever little corner of the world you're in if that's a problem for you. There's enough space here for everyone.
Internet in India is so cheap since Reliance Jio found they could offset internet customer discounts by selling every iota of customer data that you can get a month of 5G data, 2 gigs a day, for less than the price of a big Mac. This has had, is having, and will have consequences for global cyberspace.
$1.85 USD per month for 2 GB/day of 5G data is pretty wild. It seems like Meta is the company that's running away with all the data. I'm all for broader accessibility, its just too bad it happened that way (though I dont blame consumers for taking it since it may just be the most affordable internet access in the world).
true, but it's not like there are proportionate amounts of conspicuous traffic from Brazil or Korea which are almost overtaking many western user's algorithms (China is kind of exempt obviously)
Brazil and Korea have less than a fraction of the number of Internet users so they likely don't meet the threshold to penetrate an algorithm that will generally show Anglosphere users content in English.
