The threadiverse is small (compared to other major platforms) and I often see usernames that I recognize. How well do we notice each other around here?

I'll start... my name's "MrShankles" and I do be commenting/posting from time to time

The only opinion I respect is satansmaggotycumfart

I recognize a lot of frequent posters, as well as a few people from some more niche communities. It's nice that the platform is small enough for that to actually happen. I wouldn't really expect anyone to recognize me, as I don't comment a whole lot and haven't made any posts.

I recognize the people who post their art. There are a few people in particular who I especially like seeing what they've made.

I’m not a big poster. Across 3 accounts (RIP lemm.ee) I have less than five total. I do comment a lot in various communities.

Flyingsquid was a big one and other people mentioned him.

Lately, it's Victoria08. There is someone with a disgusting name that I won’t type out, let’s just call him Satan… Deceptichum?

I remember some Star Trek community fractured and the two people that did all of the memes there split but for some reason I can’t remember their names. Probably Miles or something.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 4 points 1 day ago

I don't really look at usernames but there are a few that are un-miss-able.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I am always right.

I am also an asshole.

mostly just to make people stop and take a position other than what they normally do so they can experience something new.

I don't personally use Lemmy for nsfw stuff, but I'm never mad about MentalEdge's posts when I'm cruising all.

Someone on here with a Futurama pfp that posts funny memes on lemmy shitpost. I forgot the username.

[–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I've been recognized in a hentai community or two. 😆

And I certainly recognize a lot of names mentioned ITT.

[–] AlbynRailroad@fedinsfw.app 3 points 1 day ago

He is posting. I'm literally in one of MrShankles posts Right Now! Crazy.

[–] Lojcs@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

Besides the people already mentioned I recognize the threads.com guy, some instance admins and pmjv

[–] FRYD@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

I only recognize PugJesus by name and there are a few regular posters on the trans communities who I recognize in their pictures.
