I've seen those posts too, but can't speak German. What does "ich_iel" actually mean?
It’s “ich im echten Leben”, which is a literal translation of “me in real life”.
Basically it’s a meme community and the german version of me_irl.
Actually, it's a direct translation of I_irl. It should really have been mich_iel or mir_iel.
No it shouldn't. Ich_iel is the correct translation.
Which is kinda unfortunate. Mich_iel would've been much more on brand.
