If you're a regular on any of the communities I mod, I remember your username. Any new username to me immediately stands out.

A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MODERATORS
Definitely. It helps that I tend to stick to the less mainstream lemmy communities (mostly the queer communities on blahaj.zone). It's to a point where it can be rare for me to enter a popular comment section without seeing at least 1 or 2 recognizable usernames.
To be honest, I kind of enjoy the smallness of the platform at times, it reminds me of what the old internet has always been described as to me (but with faster data transfer, and more features)
Yes, quite a few.
Ickplant moderates and is the main poster for [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] and [email protected] which, together are about half my Subscribed feed. BonesOfTheMoon fills my feed with [email protected] which is nice.
I'm sorry, are you telling me you're only subscribed to around 10 communities?!
I'm getting close to 1,500 😳

Definitely. Also remember avatars a lot.
No, somehow the usernames are not very prominent and especially the avatars are so small that I practically don't see them.

i haven;t paid attention to someones username unless they brought it up
Yeah a handful of people, but I’m terminally online when I’m between my terminally offline tasks
No it’s all the same to me and I don’t even care about the usernames
Just a few, mostly prominent people from the OpenStreetMap community that I recognize by their username/profile picture.
Sometimes I also tend to see my instance admin sometimes, but it's more rare.
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!
Yes, based on the way they talk actually, not by their usernames...
I have never recognised usernames.
Yes, I recognize a few. I can't name them from the top of my head but I always remember them when I see them.
My username relatives, including Mossy Feathers
