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.

    No, somehow the usernames are not very prominent and especially the avatars are so small that I practically don’t see them.

      But thanks to your post I now made the avatars and usernames bigger and thus more prominent, perhaps I’ll recognize more people like that!

      I think you might be great to do a podcast. You could explore the pressing issues society faces. The long lasting issues that society has faced for generations. Healthcare, religion, education, senior care abuse by nursing homes, inappropriate actions of priests with little boys, the shrinking availability for citizens not corporations to buy houses, parenting styles evolving over time. I could go on, but you get the idea.

      First you start the show, and discuss the topic in a more rational logic and fact based side, and then rediscuss everything from your more sensitive, vunerable, emotional side.

      The whole hook of the show could revolve around the duality of mankind, and how every issue has different ways to look at it. Different sides, ya’ know? And even though all of it is your opinion, your different sides may often differ, and clash.

      It would need a website though. How about www.Jennas-Side.com

      :D

        OK, I really didn’t get the joke so I had to ask ChatGTP and it explained the joke to me. Not bad, and unexpected.

        I already have both, a website and a podcast. In this episode https://jeena.net/pods/18 for example I talk with a ex Jehovas Vittnesses about how religion destroyed her life, very emotional episode.

        Or in this one https://jeena.net/pods/21 I went to Palestine to speak to a Palestinian family which house has been bulldozed by the IDF 3 times already.

            Definatelly the first one. I realized that the comment is somehow very on point with the topics, I even showed it to my spouse and she was also confused. But I didn’t realize it was a joke. I guess I need to read it a couple of times.

    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.

    Oh my, a real who’s who, I recognize most of the names mentioned too. But let’s be fair, they post stuff while many, myself included, just comment.

    Too bad I just use my game name for this, haha

    A few mods, a few hard online posters, and I think like 2 or 3 devs of various projects including lemmy lol.

    I only know 4 or so offhand though there’s probably more that I’m interacting with on a regular basis that I should commit to memory.

    I’ve had some really bad brain fog for most of the year, so while I’m generally not able to recall them on the spot, I certainly do see quite a few that makes me go “Oh hey I remember that one!”.

    I like that the Threadiverse is still kinda at the size that this still happens quite a bit.

    I’d be very surprised if I were recognized since I’ve been quite bad about contributing to the conversation, but I still enjoy things around here nonetheless!
