Although Lemmy's userbase is quite large,it still is small enough that I do often see the same people in comment sections. It feels though, that I should recognise more names, because I can only remember around 5 individual ones.

FlyingSquid is the only one I recognize and I feel like he's lemmys GallowBoob from reddit.

[–] AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think that's one of my earliest blocks. Lol.

[–] HaleHirsute@infosec.pub 1 points 2 years ago

Ah really? He’s nice and thoughtful.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

FlyingSquid, The Picard Maneuver, Ummthatguy, SatansMaggotyCumFart, SPECULATOR, KonalaKoala, SHEEPLE, ParabolicMotion (infamous), El_Burrito, FartsWithAnAccent...

There's more that I recognize but mostly by their avatars and not their names.

[–] electro1@infosec.pub 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 1 year ago)
[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 10 months ago

I recognize everyone with an avatar.

I recognize half as much without one.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Lemmy's still small enough that if you're even remotely active, you start to recognize just about everybody. I like that, and I kinda miss that about the smaller communities/forums of the old internet.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I've ran into my sister a few times. Hilariously one time she didn't notice my username and actually quoted my own comment back to me IRL because she thought it was funny.

Quitting Reddit and joining Lemmy certainly feels like moving from a metropolis to a village.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I think most of Lemmy knows me by now, and FlyingSquid.

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I recognise half the names in this comment section. And op too

[–] IDew@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

@PugJesus wya?

Why did everyone get so political lmao

[–] PopOfAfrica@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Everyone got political because that guy is pro genocide. Its a pretty gross stance. Hard to overlook.

[–] Blaze@reddthat.com 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is he? I wasn't aware of that

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm not. I'm extremely anti-Israel, but not supporting a Trump presidency makes me pro-genocide in the eyes of accelerationists.

[–] jonathanvmv8f@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago

Is it good to be engaged enough to be recognised in Lemmy? I don't know if the big players around here are just spending their entire day on Lemmy as many people on Redditors do. There is a small part of me that too wishes to be recognized as an active member in this community but I don't want it at the expense of my real life.

[–] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, somehow the usernames are not very prominent and especially the avatars are so small that I practically don't see them.

[–] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But thanks to your post I now made the avatars and usernames bigger and thus more prominent, perhaps I'll recognize more people like that!

[–] DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Seeing names pop up here that I know are just trolls. It's actually kinda a bummer. Like the Santa maggot guy. Quite certain they are not here to be helpful, so why glorify them? That said, we know Picard is legit so three cheers to them.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

SatansMCF is all over the place, they have some good takes, and some awful ones

[–] jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yes, I see a good amount; I also try to interact with them as well!

I have a few admirers; they make sure to share their opinion on some of my posts; making sure I am not lonely, how thoughtful!

It is always a great time when you recognize some peeps, and then there are some that are just 'Passin' Me By'[1]...

[1] The Pharcyde - Passin' Me By

[–] grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This song will now be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. I'm not complaining.

[–] jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

Awesome!

It is way better when it is a song we like!

[–] JoeKrogan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Can't go wrong with the pharcyde

[–] jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

You are correct!

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah I think there're a few names I've started to recognise as regulars.

Not sure if they're literally in every thread or if I just have a load of interests cross over with them
