FlyingSquid, BonesoftheMoon, jeffw, and thePicardManeuver are the ones I recognize because I see them so often.

I've had some really bad brain fog for most of the year, so while I'm generally not able to recall them on the spot, I certainly do see quite a few that makes me go "Oh hey I remember that one!".
I like that the Threadiverse is still kinda at the size that this still happens quite a bit.
I'd be very surprised if I were recognized since I've been quite bad about contributing to the conversation, but I still enjoy things around here nonetheless!
@[email protected] is cool AF and fun to make silly comedy bits with in the comment sections.

Has anyone seen academy award nominated actress Margot Robbie lately?
Maybe she's busy working and can't spend as much time messing with tech friends on social media or something.

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.
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.
We have avatars here?
(I'm an old curmudgeon that only browses lemmy via old.lemmy.world for that retro feel)
One day I'll make the list!
You yourself are certainly easily enough to detect with that username, lol.
Other than that, FlyingSquid, mostly because of the specific shade of color on his or her avatar. The fact that I agree with 98% of what he or she posts probably helps as well.
I recognise you lol

Definitely. It helps that I tend to stick to the less mainstream lemmy communities (mostly the queer communities on blahaj.zone). It's to a point where it can be rare for me to enter a popular comment section without seeing at least 1 or 2 recognizable usernames.
To be honest, I kind of enjoy the smallness of the platform at times, it reminds me of what the old internet has always been described as to me (but with faster data transfer, and more features)
FlyingSquid mostly, and a few others. Not sure if I'd be able to spell all the others properly though, lol
I had to block a few who were spamming too much, but I've since forgotten their usernames.
My username relatives, including Mossy Feathers
Sure. Like @[email protected] or @[email protected] or @[email protected] or @[email protected] or @[email protected] ... and there definitely are more people that I see regularly and simply cant think of their names right now
👋
If you're a regular on any of the communities I mod, I remember your username. Any new username to me immediately stands out.
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.
A few mods, a few hard online posters, and I think like 2 or 3 devs of various projects including lemmy lol.
