Am i the only one who feels like it's the same handful of users posting and commenting on lemmy?

At least on the communities i follow. Every so often I come across a thread where i recognize most of the users there even in the big communities with over 30k members and I haven't even been on lemmy that long.
You're viewing a single thread.
Yeah, that's what you get with smaller communities, you tend to see the same people over and over.
And I kind of like it. We get to know who is worth reading and who isn't, for the frequent posters at least.
I used to be active on one of my country's most popular forums, if ranked by daily visits. Self-help Q&A style. Apart from me, there were pretty much only three users contributing about 90% of the content. One of them being the only mod. It took me years to figure out, from the timing and the writing style of the posts, that this mod also poses nearly all of the questions and gives all of the first answers too, using a new single-use sock puppet each time.
At the start of this year, it devolved into plain attention whoring and it was really sad, so I left.
