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.

Just a few, mostly prominent people from the OpenStreetMap community that I recognize by their username/profile picture.

Sometimes I also tend to see my instance admin sometimes, but it's more rare.

Definitely. There is about a handful of terminally online users who are posting here way too much for way too long, they should probably take a step back and touch some grass, which i mean in the most respectful and understanding way imaginable.

On the other hand, those people are main content providers and their unhealthy behavior is our gain.

Yeah a handful of people, but I’m terminally online when I’m between my terminally offline tasks

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.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

I'm fairly certain that at least most of us that post at least semi regularly in tenforward recognize each other. There's a few doing a lot. My posts have dropped off lately because of creative burnout, though so I'm not around as much.

FlyingSquid is the only one I recognize and I feel like he's lemmys GallowBoob from reddit.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Very accurate and disturbing

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That character is almost literally on every thread I read.

A couple, but first and most often my own.

Interstellar, I got buddies who died face-down in the muck so you and I could enjoy this family lemmy!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Urda, if you don't calm down I'm going to have to ask to defederate from you.
