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.

    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.

    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.

    A small handful. Especially those who post content a lot. But not a lot.

    However, when reading comments, I only check usernames when I either strongly agree or disagree. Only outliers are identified; idle chat is visually anonymized by my having a very limited field of view.

    Connect let’s 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.

    While some have already been mentioned, I’d also like to call out that we do have the esteemed Academy Award winning actress, Margot Robbie in Lemmy! She posts when she can, and I’m really hoping one day she’ll do an Ask Me Anything with us.
