I kinda feel like I have more of a persona here? Lemmy is a smaller community than Reddit and I recognize people more than I used to. Read: I ever look at usernames. I’ve bothered with an avatar, for instance.
Something I still miss is the “brain trust” that was Reddit. You could ask “experimental exo-ornithologists of Reddit” and get at least ten of them. Reddit had a culture of tracking down mysteries, I don’t think we have anything like The Most Mysterious Song On The Internet or Celebrity Number Six. I miss stuff like that.

That’s a little terrifying for me as someone who likes using reddit-likes for the anonymity lol. Although on reddit I used to recognise some usernames in smaller subreddits where there were a few active posters.
