Familiar faces resurfacing is nice and only possible on a smaller sized platform. Or clicking someones profile only to see a post I previously saw or commemted on.

    Huh, maybe I need to be more proactive about deleting and recreating accounts here. On Reddit, I would do it about every year or two, and that seemed to work pretty well.

    I value my privacy online, which is why I’ll never again have a Facebook account (deleted mine years ago), and why I never used a valid email on Reddit. I guess this means I’ll probably need to recreate my account every few months instead of years.

    What I like about lemmy is quite different, I like that there’s no incentive to get popular here. Karma isn’t a thing, there are no awards, and the audience isn’t big enough to attract as many narcissists.

    Anyway, I hope to earn your votes with whatever my account is in the future.
