Do you recognise any usernames on Lemmy? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

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.

There's a handful, yeah. Some folks are prolific posters. Others just have altered text I'm their name, which makes it stand out enough to recall easily.

But generally, it takes extended interactions to remember a user name for long.

^^^ This is the one I recognize. There's just so many times that I see a kind, well thought out, informative comment and it's got southsamurai's name above it

No kidding? That's kinda cool since I recognize your name too. Had a great conversation.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No kidding. However I did sort of forget what the conversation was about.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Me too, tbh. Just remember it being interesting and friendly
