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

    I try to keep in mind the names of those that I regularly interact with, and even try to pay attention to who my regular lurkers are. While I mainly just interact with people replying to my posts, I lurk a ton myself, but there I think I’m more familiar with the names of the people I am not the biggest fan of, since I don’t usually block anyone.

    So far in this thread, I feel familiar with:

    ada, JetpackJackson, nemo, SnotFlickerman, and I’ve seen a number of things from my bearboiblake recently

    I went on whatever that Fediverse stat tool page is today and was able to predict most of my top ten people I comment with.

    I enjoy the relatively small size of the Fediverse, and I like that I get to become familiar with so many of you.

        Ooo, what’s my little score there?

        I stumbled on someone’s Fediverse stat tracker the other day and I saw this username was like the 27th top poster/commenter and it blew my mind! I feel my main subject matter is so niche. For someone who came here to lurk silently and not participate, I’ve really missed the goalpost! 😜

        I’m honestly happy to have gotten to casually know so many of you. This place largely takes me back to the internet of 20-ish years ago. I wish we could get some cooler heads in the news/politics stuff, and the tensions between World and DB0 have been bumming me out lately, but otherwise most people here are top notch.

          My client (voyager) tracks how many up-/downvotes I give someone and I gave you about 2k upvotes so far.

          You said you came to lurk silently, I‘d say mission failed successfully :P ;)

            Nice, I must be doing something right

            Out of all the things I’ve failed at, this is one of the one I regret the least! 😁
