I'm constantly commenting on threads from random UK and aus town communities because they show up on my feed and I have nothing better to do but yap and nobody who knows I'm american seems to care. I don't think anybody would care if the mod and sole poster of a community for a town isn't from there. At least it's something.
Poor Brisbane, downgraded to "random Australian town".

Tbf Brisbane has like a 2.5M person metro population. In American terms thats like the equivalent of Austin, Portland, or Sacramento, despite being the third largest city in Australia. All three of those could easily be called “random American cities” by people around the world. Small potatoes in terms of overall size. New York and Mexico City have 10x that many people
