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.

I talk about Marxism-Leninism a lot, that's about it.

I always enjoy your contributions.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 days ago

Thanks buddy <3 I try my best to not have them all be shitposts. Or at least contain those to the right community lol

5 worthy reasons!

[–] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 days ago

I don’t think I’ve been here long enough to be recognized.

[–] stopforgettingit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'll be honest, I rarely look at names unless I read a comment that says something about OPs name.

[–] Sirius006@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

Username kinda checks out

[–] Pandantic@midwest.social 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It would be so much easier for me if you said “post what other lemmings are known for”. Shout out to bonesofthemoon who shares poems they like. It’s something I want to post more of my self. One of the many comms I would contribute to if I had more time! 😭

Hey. Hey you. As your attorney I advise you to buy a pocketknife. Preferably a really strange one.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

I don’t like being yelled at.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

Cooking and getting riled up by tankies I guess.

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 4 points 6 days ago

Amazing how many names here I recognise! I doubt I've personally made a super significant impression outside a few arguments 😂

[–] Objection@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 days ago

Bein' one a them damn dirty Reds
