Are there any "famous" Lemmy users?

@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world is a meme god.

@PugJesus@lemmy.world keeps history alive and the Confederacy in check.

@anon6789@lemmy.world is our resident owl afficionado.

There are many others, of course, but I seem to notice these three a lot in my Subscribed feed.

DBZer0, aka Divide By Zer0. He runs an instance with the same name. He's one of the old mods on r/piracy and helped lead an exodus over to Lemmy

academy award nominee "Margot Robbie" of course!

I see a lot of posts from @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world.

They post good memes, insightful comments, moderates a few communities I think.

probably not a real squid though, I don't think they got internet in the ocean

No love for @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world ? They're not always the best troll, but man are they prodigious.

I asked my mom and she didn't really understand what Lemmy is but she assured me that I am the coolest person on here.

An autographed headshot will run you $20

@MargotRobbie@lemmy.world obviously

Flying squid

Special shoutout to @ickplant@lemmy.world who's on point with the opossum memes.

@Stamets@lemmy.world is quite famous in the Lemmy Startrek Lore, but less active lately probably due to big real-life changes happening, I wish them well.

The user with an AI copyright notice on every one of their posts is one of my favorite "gimmicks".

In !science_memes@mander.xyz @fossilesque@mander.xyz is very present.

In the german meme community !ich_iel@feddit.org @instantnudel@feddit.org , @EherVielleicht@feddit.org and @ZonenRanslite@feddit.org are very well known.

I am quite famous in my house. Pretty much everyone here knows me.

How many of yall read this entire thread and were disapointed or glad you didnt find your own name.

Well, not to brag, but today i sneezed so loud that a neighbour 2 houes down and across yelled "bless". So, yeah, kind of famous.

I'm here. You're here. Let's you and me be the new celebrities.

@mizu6079@lemmy.world for this post: https://szmer.info/post/423722
@MentalEdge@ani.social for running !dungeonmeshi@ani.social
@wjs018@ani.social for running !anime@ani.social
@NineSwords@ani.social for running !lightnovels@ani.social

P.S. Mizu's poop post is really nice study in how the content prevails in fediverse. The original post on lemmy.world throws an error, kbin.social that is linked in r/BORU@reddit.com no longer works, but I found a copy on szmer.info

FlyingSquid(I don't know on which instance he is, but you see him quite often).

Clearly me. I am a tiny little youtuber and streamer who wants this place to succeed, so I lurk, I post and don't have a presence on the big platforms.

So if I ever make it big, I can help drive users here. You just wait! It'll happen any day now!

I've noticed @Blaze@reddthat.com contributes to the community a lot!

All the star trek guys

Saving this thread so i can update my blocklist!

I'm huge in japan

There are definitely some that I see around a lot, eg. PugJesus or that guy with the emoji name that starts with a K

I'm always seeing TexasDrunk on here. But maybe it's just that Texas stands out to me since I'm from there.

Ah yes. The most American of questions.

@Emperor@feddit.uk, @UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk and @TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml help a lot to keep !movies@lemm.ee active

That one user who started that no pooping meme or whatever its called

I'm Burt Reynolds.

I think me all joking aside I think https://lemmy.world/u/The_Picard_Maneuver is the closest to one due to seeing him everywhere

I see @MyOpinion@lemm.ee constantly, and it trips me up every time because when I met my wife online twelve years ago, her username was MyOpinionIs. Not sure that they're famous, though..

I think it's the blue checkmark that always draws my eyes.

Maybe its just me, but I see @BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world moon a lot. They post sovereign citizen stuff, which is what i see regularly, but they are also a pretty good poet.

@Early_To_Risa@sh.itjust.works

@fucker@lemmy.world were fairly prominent for a while with !internetfuneral@lemmy.world

Its me that guy in the thing

https://lemmy.world/u/jeffw

Jeffw is locally famous. Posting content and commenting. (Sorry, can’t figure out how to grab the user name link on this app)

Don't know their exact names...
Instant Noodles on feddit.org
Someone with blue emojis spelling and starting with a K (Kola or Kol or something)

@Kolanaki@yiffit.net has a blue name and posts a lot

I see @teft@lemmy.world, @ivanafterall@lemmy.world, and @MicroWave@lemmy.world a lot

@cheese_greater@lemmy.world I think counts. A good friend who is famous for participating and fascinated with every activity I'll never do lol

Not me.

I'm sure I'm famous because I'm allegedly a Russian troll and a Nazi sympathizer that promotes slavery in China because I eat chocolate sometimes.

Quite the character, huh?

I suspect a lot of the prolific posters are just cross posting curated content from reddit (which is fine). I don't think Lemmy is big enough for famous people yet. Alternatively:

Lemmy has no famous people. Lemmy needs to famous people.

"Fart McCarthy" of course, you remember the "Ding Ding Dookie Shuffe" on Christmas Eve '73? Classic! Even my grandma knows about that one.

And she's a god damn idiot.

I'm infamous if that helps

The_Picard_Maneuver is the real MVP of Lemmy, a source of so much joy.

I might be famous when pigs fly.
