A small handful. Especially those who post content a lot. But not a lot.
However, when reading comments, I only check usernames when I either strongly agree or disagree. Only outliers are identified; idle chat is visually anonymized by my having a very limited field of view.
Yesss.
flying squid
the cooler mia
max
gandalf der 12
ygthur (or sth)
and a lot of german home instance ones (ranslite, nudel, kühe, ...)
and probably a few i forgot rn
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
The rest of these comments are surprising because I don't remember anyone past an interaction we had. Now I'm wondering whose shit list I'm on
Mine 😈
Unfortunately, yes. The vast majority of them are from shitty people that are on my block list. Only a few are just prolific posters, like Picard Maneuver and Flying Squid.
Nope. But I mean I don't even remember names of people irl, haha
Yea, I see same people all the time, small world or small lemmy idk
No, but I miss the days of smaller forums with user recognition. The last time I really recognized a user that wasn't a mass repost bot was a user on the r/stalker (game) sub-reddit by the name of CeliceTheGreat. Every interaction and opinion we ever had were seemingly in solidarity with one another, and it was always a pleasure to encounter him on other subs occasionally. I doubt he was any more Russian than I am (American/Canadian), but I miss you, comrade, and think of you often.
Commenting usernames which I know and Someone else have didn't commented yet.
@[email protected] He is now inactive on Lemmy Sadly
Interstellar, I got buddies who died face-down in the muck so you and I could enjoy this family lemmy!
I recognize maybe 1 or 2. I'm on a lot less than I was when I started so it makes sense.
There was a thread about me (cheese_greater) a long time ago haha. Like they say, if you can't read about yourself...It was pretty...balanced, fr
Yes, a few.
Even if you see many, it doesn't seem odd to only remember 5 though. I was on Reddit for like 9 years and would only have recognized a handful of usernames.
@Interstellar_[email protected] Yes, but I use microblogging site of the Fediverse pretty often, and recognize more names from there
(Software I'm using supports both Lemmy and Mastodon etc so I'm exposed to both)
Damn I need to post more.
Yeah. I see a bunch of the same accounts, but that’s probably because they’re active in the same communities I am. I see a lot more accounts I don’t recognize though.
Well see EVERYBODY knows The MASTA CHIEF
Nope, not quite, or at least I can't remember.
I reckon not everyone carried over their username from the other place; I personally didn't.
If you're a regular on any of the communities I mod, I remember your username. Any new username to me immediately stands out.
I recognise a lot of people on hexbear since most other instances defederate them. doesn't leave a lot of variety so it has that forum feel.
