I live in the EU area; why is the 'Evanston, IL' community ~half of my feed at LOCAL/Active? (lemmy.world)

Sorry if this is not the right community for the question - this was the first one that came to my mind. I'm just wondering if I'm misinterpreting the meaning of the word 'local' in this context; or this is somehow pretty normal and due to the algorithm (in which case I'd like to know this algorithm a little more); or maybe because it's a bug.

UPDATE: I just reloaded the site, thinking I might have just pressed 'next' one too many times, making the algorithm run out of ideas. At the moment I don't see any more Evanston content, however, this has happened several times before, this is why I decided to write here, because it was the 4th/5th time already.

I wish lemmy had a hide community option, one that could be used so you do not see the posts in your feed, but could visit the community and see what is there.
