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.
While some have already been mentioned, I’d also like to call out that we do have the esteemed Academy Award winning actress, Margot Robbie in Lemmy! She posts when she can, and I’m really hoping one day she’ll do an Ask Me Anything with us.
Yay
I thought she was only nominated?
She’s a winner in my heart
🥰
FlyingSquid is the only one I recognize and I feel like he’s lemmys GallowBoob from reddit.
I think that’s one of my earliest blocks. Lol.
Ah really? He’s nice and thoughtful.
Yes. Aside from the friends I’ve made on here, which I rather not disclose, I regularly notice the following usernames:
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.
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.
No, somehow the usernames are not very prominent and especially the avatars are so small that I practically don’t see them.
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!

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
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
This song will now be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. I’m not complaining.
Awesome!
It is way better when it is a song we like!
Can’t go wrong with the pharcyde
You are correct!
