There’s been a couple of minor dust-ups on mastodon about the conduct of so-called “big accounts” there that I do not care to comment on, but it has got me thinking — do we even have “big accounts” on the threadiverse (Lemmy/piefed/mbin)? I don’t think there’s any handle I’ve seen where I’ve been like “oh yeah, that person.” Am I just bad at remembering usernames, or does the community/thread style of discussion remove all continuity for a single account?

    I used to see you everywhere. Then I got the “Voyager for Lemmy” app. Now I rarely ever notice you.

    Voyager doesn’t do custom username fonts or icons, so everyone’s username is just plaintext. You blend in with every other user in my feed, and I rarely look at usernames, so I tend to miss users that I haven’t specifically tagged myself.
