To "relate" means that you can connect, sympathize or identify with something. If you and another person have similar experiences in life, you can relate to each other based on your shared experiences. In this case, the speaker is not part of any online community, so they can't identify with the experience of being part of an online community. Ex: I can relate with anyone who grew up in the 90s. Ex: I've never lived abroad, so I can't relate to that experience.
