I don't understand. YC is an American company in English. Why are visitors so surprised when most of the content is US based?

Also Merica' #1 ... jk :)

Content in English means it’s fair for all those who speak English. Unless you want a build a wall across the internet to keep rest of us out.

It is absolutely not true that just because a message is in English it has the intended audience of all English speakers.

How is anyone supposed to divine that a general English statement about a European MNC was restricted to just America?

It’s like me saying “McDonalds has stopped selling hamburgers” and expecting you to magically understand that this statement is about Indian McD’s and not American McDs.
