Connect lets you tag people, witch helps with recognition. Both in positive and negative sense. I usually tag people before adding them to my ban list, to see if their behaviour is coherent or a fluke.
Aside from that there's a couple of names that I recall through their frequency of posting or a very specific name, such as Mr cumfart, flying squid, pugjesus and Picard. Otherwise I sometimes recognize names, but not in a way I would recall them.
@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)
Yes, based on the way they talk actually, not by their usernames...
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.
Craftyindividual, pugjesus, adjjj, nanoUFO, all the frequent content posters in the magazines I am interested in. Sometimes I recognize people by name who post less frequently or just by avatar in the sidebar when logging in.
Thepickardmaneuver or whatever and Luxefre or something are the only two I can think of. Another one posts a lot and the other made a good argument at some point.
There's a ton more that I recognize when I see their name but can't think of of the top of my head.
There are also few I've blocked that I don't give the pleasure of mentioning their names.
Edit: oh and kolanki(?)
Seeing names pop up here that I know are just trolls. It's actually kinda a bummer. Like the Santa maggot guy. Quite certain they are not here to be helpful, so why glorify them? That said, we know Picard is legit so three cheers to them.
Depends on four factors (theory):
The last one is key. I think most people skim right over them, which makes the first three important.
No it’s all the same to me and I don’t even care about the usernames
The Picard Maneuver, flying squid, Riker...
Basically anyone who posts to Chevron7 or Ten Forward who has a profile picture... I recognize the pictures more than the names for most.
Personally, I don't want people to remember me, I just want someone to go "hey, I know what your profile is in reference to! Nerd-five!" and be on about our business.
I've noticed quite a few, yes.
I think most of Lemmy knows me by now, and FlyingSquid.
Never heard of you. What did you do?
you and @FlyingSquid yeah. I did calculate one day how much flying squod posts and comments and damn he's active
edit: I guess you can link people like that. TIL
And Stamets. Though, thinking about it I've not seen them about much recently.
JameGumb and Pug Jesus too.
I think the fediverse is the future and I want it to do well and be robust, and also I like to talk a lot so that translates to posting here.
Not really, because I normally don't even look at or register usernames unless I emphatically agree or disagree with a post. I've been doing this for years, first on forums, then on reddit and now here. I don't want to be biased against the content of the message just because I like or dislike a particular poster, so I mostly ignore usernames altogether.
I recognize mine. Pops up kind of often.
Damn I need to post more.
I’ve already blocked military veganism (not the actual name but I don’t want them to accidentally show up) And I’ve noticed satansmaggotycumfart (or something similar to that) a few times
The profile pictures are super tiny and I only sometimes read the names. So, for the most part I only check the post/comment and decide on a vote or comment action.
