Familiar faces resurfacing is nice and only possible on a smaller sized platform. Or clicking someones profile only to see a post I previously saw or commemted on.
Yeah I am amazed by the personal interactions and connections that I’ve formed here, they’ve been the most rewarding part of Lemmy for me. There is not a single redditor who would recognize my reddit account after 10+ years on the platform, but I’m sure there’s a good number of Lemmings who already recognize me, and indeed know me, or at least the personality I express online.
Treasure these times, because someday Lemmy will outgrow this phase if we start getting much larger.
