Although Lemmy's userbase is quite large,it still is small enough that I do often see the same people in comment sections. It feels though, that I should recognise more names, because I can only remember around 5 individual ones.

jots down your username

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Definately gonna follow this guy around Lemmy and make completely innocent remarks, that are in no way insulting or aggressive.

But with Lemmy being so small, and me having said that, he's now going to wonder if I actually AM following him around Lemmy. Or is it really the coincidence of Lemmy being so small.

However I post so often everywhere that it's bound to happen. And he's going to be like "OH MY GOD DUDE!!! IT'S BEEN THREE MONTHS!!! STOOOOOP!!!!"

And 5 minutes after posting this I will immediately forget he exists. Thus making him look like a crazy person from my perspective.

See? This is how you troll yourself. Start by having insane thoughts, follow up by acting on them, then forget the whole thing, and be confused by the consequences of your own actions!

And thus, I learn absplutely nothing!

I used to use the personal tag/comment in RES to keep track of peoples real names when they let slip in a post.

It was always fun to run across them in another sub months later and use their name as if I knew them.

Boost has a tag function. Main reason I'm using it, though I mostly just use it to tag tankies.

That is a really spot on description on how I live my life.
