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.

    These are good points, and a lot of people may find that sort of separation useful.

    Personally I’m also an activist involved with hacker culture, independent journalism, and weird art and comedy stuff, but I’ve come to a point where I don’t really feel much need to separate that from the rest of my life; the mundane me is hacker me, activist me, etc. I’m also pretty confident that if I said or did something stupid enough to involve backlash from anyone whose opinion matters to me, not only would I probably have earned the criticism but my wife would be first in line to tell me I’m being an ass.
