For me anyway, not the person you asked but lemmy needs comments to feed it.

But for me, i don't visually picture someone's face off I'm remembering it, but i do remember what someone looks like. So when I meet someone I recognise, it just clicks. I could describe someone i know from memory but maybe not with a ton of detail.

I remember what things look like, could remember details of a painting etc etc, it's just when i think of things, theres no visual acompaniment.

Idk its hard to explain now that I'm trying to put it in words
