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.
Lemmy’s still small enough that if you’re even remotely active, you start to recognize just about everybody. I like that, and I kinda miss that about the smaller communities/forums of the old internet.
jots down your username
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Definately gonna follow this guy around Lemmy and make completely innocent remarks, that are in no way insulting or aggressive.
But with Lemmy being so small, and me having said that, he’s now going to wonder if I actually AM following him around Lemmy. Or is it really the coincidence of Lemmy being so small.
However I post so often everywhere that it’s bound to happen. And he’s going to be like “OH MY GOD DUDE!!! IT’S BEEN THREE MONTHS!!! STOOOOOP!!!”
And 5 minutes after posting this I will immediately forget he exists. Thus making him look like a crazy person from my perspective.
See? This is how you troll yourself. Start by having insane thoughts, follow up by acting on them, then forget the whole thing, and be confused by the consequences of your own actions!
And thus, I learn absplutely nothing!
I used to use the personal tag/comment in RES to keep track of peoples real names when they let slip in a post.
It was always fun to run across them in another sub months later and use their name as if I knew them.

That is a really spot on description on how I live my life.
Relevant username(?)
Shocked nobody seems to have brought up ThePicardManuever yet
Him and Stamets are easily the ones who kept me here a year ago
Shocked nobody seems to have brought up ThePicardManuever yet
And @willya@lemmyf.uk 😏
I don’t but I will add you to my watching list.
Username checks out.
I’ll try to do the same haha
I think most of Lemmy knows me by now, and FlyingSquid.
I do appreciate the poetry posting
I’m so glad! I’m always surprised who reads it.
Yeah I see this person everywhere
One of you, or the furry that I can’t remember the name of (so sorry), has to compete to become the new GallowBoob.
Or me. I exist.
EDIT: Kolanki
Omigod I forgot Gallowboob.
flying squid, return2ozma, jeffw, and that raging moron Stern is about it for me.
I think Kolanaki, Zacharia, Margot Robbie (since she’s famous already), are the ones I can remember. Maybe making a journal page for keeping track would help.
don’t forget Satansmagottycumfart
Yep I did lol, thanks for the addition
Whoa you found all my alts
Yes. Aside from the friends I’ve made on here, which I rather not disclose, I regularly notice the following usernames:
👋 samesies!
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.
Yes I do and look forward to thier comments.
Hey she’s pretty good
FlyingSquid is the only one I recognize and I feel like he’s lemmys GallowBoob from reddit.
That character is almost literally on every thread I read.
Very accurate and disturbing
GallowBoob was more bot like. Did he really chime in that much?
Early on he would, but you are right I always suspected the account was more of a marketing firm of several people and the guy was just the public face of the account.
I think that’s one of my earliest blocks. Lol.
Ah really? He’s nice and thoughtful.
The “Satan’s maggoty cum fart” person, hard to forget a name like that and the images it puts in your head
It has invaded my head, too. I want a chance to use it in real life, but when!? Where!? Trivia night?
FlyingSquid, BonesoftheMoon, jeffw, and thePicardManeuver are the ones I recognize because I see them so often.
Kolnax? Or someone because it’s huge and blue
You mention ThePicardManeuver but leave out Stamets@lemmy.world???
Flying squid and thePicardManuever are the only ones I recognize and I’m just realizing now that they are two different people
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world has a distinctive profile picture, and I see them everywhere. Also I suspect I know @Dave@lemmy.nz IRL, but I’m not certain.
I know it’s bad to put your own picture in your profile, but I had to show you all how majestically I soar.
I would think that O’Hare and Indianapolis International would have issues with you violating their airspace.
I have always wondered how do you do it: How do you fly?
I squirt my way out of the water using my body like a jet and then soar on my fins!
From the link:
A species of oceanic squid can fly more than 30 metres (100 feet) through the air at speeds faster than Usain Bolt if it wants to escape predators, Japanese researchers said Friday.
So, what’s chasing you?
From the link:
It’s a squid-eat-squid world down there.
Sounds pretty capitalistic to me.
Do you have a minute to talk about socialism?
Look, I’m all for the squid to control the means of propulsion, but it’s hard convincing others…
Also I suspect I know @Dave@lemmy.nz IRL, but I’m not certain.
I guess that’s a consequence of telling the same anecdotes on lemmy and to everyone I see.
Everyone knows @Dave@lemmy.nz.
Yes.
I see and reply to u/FlyingSquid a lot.
I also see u/The_Picard_Manoeuvre or some variation. I only remember those two as I saw them a lot when I came here and still do.
Plenty. In fact it’s something I enjoy from here, reminds me of the old internet. It also feels less full of randos than Reddit, although in smaller communities that wasn’t a problem.
Honestly the profile pic helps a lot.
Sure. Like @The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world or @fossilesque@mander.xyz or @Blaze@reddthat.com or @otter@lemmy.ca or @brucethemoose@lemmy.world … and there definitely are more people that I see regularly and simply cant think of their names right now
