I've seen those posts too, but can't speak German. What does "ich_iel" actually mean?

It’s “ich im echten Leben”, which is a literal translation of “me in real life”.

Basically it’s a meme community and the german version of me_irl.

ich = me
iel = im echten leben = in real life

so ich_iel = me_irl
