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.

      I’ve ran into my sister a few times. Hilariously one time she didn’t notice my username and actually quoted my own comment back to me IRL because she thought it was funny.

      Quitting Reddit and joining Lemmy certainly feels like moving from a metropolis to a village.
