We're a small tight knit community. We see the same names everywhere. I'm sure many of you have been recognised by strangers before.

What is your claim to Lemmy fame.

Lady butterfly is for example responsible for keeping Lemmy wholesome.

Blaze is posting meta stuff quite often.

The Picard Manoeuvre is the first Lemmy celeb for his accomplishments in memes.

Many names I can mention.

I get recognized a lot because of my huge wang. That and my humility, I'd say.

I'm here in the meager effort to create some joy, because I am utterly overwhelmed by the awful.

I mostly lurk, just like how I’m primarily scrolling through this thread to see if the 21-23 year old virgin who’s looking for a 30 year old girlfriend is in here.

I make a new account every thousand comments or so specifically because I don’t want internet fame. But if I didn’t, I’d probably be recognized as that guy who says what he thinks even when he knows it won’t be popular. Then again, I filter content so aggressively to avoid threads where I’d be tempted to share those unpopular opinions that maybe I wouldn’t get recognized that much after all.

I highly doubt i would be recognized by anyone in any meaningful capacity. To draw attention and get internet clout you need to be a hyperactive poster, a mod for an active community, or engage in a little politics/drama otherwise nobody notices nobody cares. Im just some guy who says things and post whatever.
