Lemmy, no. Reddit, no. Fediverse: there are a few people (less than a dozen) that I have met IRL ("know" may be a strong word) and also have a more or less strong presence in the fediverse, primarily Mastodon.
lol no.
I wouldn't know because I've never mentioned it to anyone.
Not yet, but it seems to be growing.
Only the other bots in the farm I inhabit.
That would require me to actually know someone.
I envy you. You’ve reached what I desire.
It is not it's all it's cracked up to be. Trust me.
I’m in a rural area, and the few people I have to see on a daily basis are still too many.

I don’t even know anyone that uses Reddit 🫠
I don't even know anyone ~~that uses reddit~~
Sadly no. Ive recommended the fediverse to a couple dudes, one of them is too much of a normie to care (i will lecture him again soon xD) and the other doesnt like the fediverse😐 chose bsky instead of mastodon.. (oh and a third guy just said fuck u and fuck all this stuff alltogether, he was fed up with me complaining ab big tech lmaooo at least he uses matrix to chat w me now)
What's real life ?
But even for reddit I only know a person in real life that uses it. I tried to convert him, he said "there are too many Linux apologists" 🤷🏻♂️
See? Tankies aren't a problem at all. What're yall worried about?
I know more but they stuck with it for some reason. One friend may be on Lemmy too but I'm not giving them my username …

Me and my friend both switched from Reddit at the same time when the apps died.
I'm not sure I know anyone in real life
They are all robots and NPCs.
I know one guy, but I know him from a IRC (now Matric) channel, but we are offline friends too and visited each other often.
Nah. My brother, wife, my two best friends and one co-worker are the only ones who even know it exists, and that's because they know I use it as an alternative to reddit since the API fiasco. It's honestly pretty obscure, but I like it that way. I'd love to see larger niche communities, especially since r/stalker was one of the only places I could actively talk about my favorite game series, but Lemmy has been a far better experience overall.
Let me stop you before you suggest a narwhal bacons at midnight equivalent for lemmy
YOU SHOULD INSTALL LINUX
That would imply that they know it even exists
My spouse. But that's it.
There's no way to know
Of course I know him, it's me!.jpg
"This is the man you are looking for."
Don't look into the O, or you'll get poked.
Force poked
I didn't know a single redditor either, some ppl who had seen my name (my dumbass doxed my full unique name as my username when I was a kid and I didnt change it forever) irl had mentioned it to me, but they didn't use it past google, they weren't posting, commenting, or signing up
