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.
You must log in or register to comment.
Depends on four factors (theory):
- You have profile pictures on
- Your App shows the emoji characters in display names (ugh (my reaction has no reflection on the quality of their posts, it just annoys me))
- You reply to the same person more than a few times
- You proactively read usernames as you read comments/posts
The last one is key. I think most people skim right over them, which makes the first three important.
Connect lets you disable custom display names otherwise that guy would be on my blocklist. I haven’t noticed him once since disabling it but goddamn did I find it annoying before that
Yea I’ve been meaning to add that to Thunder.
