That’s actually what I like about these sorts of communities. I recognize a few super posters and a few specific regulars from communities I frequent. (@skymtf@lemmy.blahaj.zone I want you to know that I think about you and you matter <3) But mostly I’m dealing with disembodied ideas and content. It’s a conversation with strangers who meet up to talk about certain subjects. We get little bits of each other in a vacuum. We have to address only that bit we’re given, because we don’t know each other.
I use other social media for real community. Lemmy is for camaraderie. We meet to do something, not to just be.
