@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world is a meme god.

@PugJesus@lemmy.world keeps history alive and the Confederacy in check.

@anon6789@lemmy.world is our resident owl afficionado.

There are many others, of course, but I seem to notice these three a lot in my Subscribed feed.

    Along with those already mentioned, my personal heroes are people who keep communities alive:

    @MrSebSin@sh.itjust.works posts comics daily to !garfield@lemmy.world and others

    @perishthethought@lemm.ee keeps !fullmoviesonyoutube@lemm.ee going

    @JohnnyEnzyme@lemm.ee posts regularly about !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee

    @clark@midwest.social has been killing it on !truecomics@midwest.social

    DBZer0, aka Divide By Zer0. He runs an instance with the same name. He's one of the old mods on r/piracy and helped lead an exodus over to Lemmy

    @The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world has been a constant presence who seemingly posts at all hours of the day, probably the biggest Lemmy "celebrity" that I can think of.

    I see a lot of posts from @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world.

    They post good memes, insightful comments, moderates a few communities I think.

    probably not a real squid though, I don't think they got internet in the ocean

    probably not a real squid though

    I am currently visiting some friends I've been talking to on a forum for years but have never met. We've all been really close despite that. It's sort of a three-day forum party and it's been amazing.

    Why do I bring this up?

    I needed a shirt to wear for the first day so I didn't have to keep telling people who I was and I found the perfect shirt. (Excuse the crease, I took the picture the day after.)

    Edit: are the downvoters disillusioned by the revelation of my false endoskeleton?

    I have seen their name a lot, and though I think I share similar opinions with them on a lot of things, I find they tend to be more condescending and insulting for my particular preference.

    Checks community's modlist

    I've seen them a lot as well, but personally in my interactions, I've found them to be abrasive, narrow minded, and eager to take things personally. Lowkey don't mind that, it's not the internet if everyone is some polite bland npc.

    But add mod powers for many communities and...

    Special shoutout to @ickplant@lemmy.world who's on point with the opossum memes.

    @Stamets@lemmy.world is quite famous in the Lemmy Startrek Lore, but less active lately probably due to big real-life changes happening, I wish them well.

    The user with an AI copyright notice on every one of their posts is one of my favorite "gimmicks".
