Anyone else notice the fediverse is quite close knit?

I keep seeing the same names popping up. I think it’s rather cute!

I have a really bad habit of never looking at anyone’s names…

There are specific users with emoji names that stand out a lot all of the time.

Interesting! I wonder if the Eternity client doesn’t show that? I have never noticed it at least. I am also in the habit of never looking at names though. Maybe it is good to be in the habit of remembering names because it humanizes the people on the other end or so?

For me profile pictures helps a lot. You could go to Settings->interface->comments->show avatar

Same, but it is a trained habit. I purposefully do not want to look at usernames.

You’ll be having a perfectly nice conversation only to look up and see you’re talking to “uwu_yes_daddy” or “aryan_enjoyer88.”
