Does anyone else know everyone on their notification list by [user]name? Like, glancing at the avatars and think "Hey {name}, what's new?" I'm often right about which comments/rants they've ++'d, too.

I know quite a few of you by name, too 😋

Only the users who are the most active

If usually go by avatars but there's that bug where they play Russian roulette.

So now I've gotta see names but yea basically

@sweetnothings it's actually pretty fuckin anonymous, it's merely up to you to keep as anon as you want it to be.

I am Root's best friend, Paul

@AlgoRythm I hate primates.

@Root I have some bad Darwinian news for you, comrade

@AlgoRythm All. Primates.
But let's not taint a happy post 😊

@Root Well you don't need to worry about me. Obviously, due to my CSS shirt, I am of demonic descent. Which interestingly fits into the topic at hand: not many people have the golden aviator / CSS shirt combo.

@sweetnothings Maybe, but we all love Rutee anyway. At least I do 😊 But we're friends off devRant, too.

@sweetnothings
I think you might be overestimating how observant people are here.

👩‍🦯

Yeah I do mostly, it's pretty awesome to belong such a nice community

Interesting topic 📌

@Root Most of the time it's usually the same 10-20 people in my feeds so not hard to pick out the dots, every know and again you get new face show up.

@Stuxnet I'm so on the wrong OS to play Russian roulette, always knew I was missing out.

@sweetnothings I don't hide behind my devRant dot, i'm the same outside of this platform as I am on it, not everyone enjoys my company.. I get that, can't please everyone right?

As for our rutee, we do it for the laughs at the moment, there's nothing stopping him not posting half the stuff he does, but its in fun... unless I did have my way with him the other day 🤔 if he stopped being the persona we all know, I'm sure we'd adjust.

Today I got a @beatle in my feed, hey quite guy.

This used to be the case for me with SukMikeHok until he went silent.

I miss Jase and Mike

@SortOfTested did you change your shirt? 🤔 something's different.

@Jilano really? Like you loose track of who you're talking to?

@C0D4 oh boy

@Jilano speaking of @noop, where did all his content go?

@Jilano 🥰tell me more

*Walter White intensifies*
"SAY MY NAME!"

@sweetnothings 😅 it be closer to this right now

Being a lurker mostly I do not get too many notifications but just looking at rants, I and I'd also say people in general do connect the users icons/usernames with a persona remembering their tech stacks, rants/stories(back story?) etc as this platform is fairly small and easy to feel familiarity with the community

@C0D4 she changed her shirt and I saw her do it

i doubt you can remember who the hell i am outside a vague statement about the snippets of my rants you may remember reading

if you "can remember more" i can guarantee you went through my rants to make it seem so without actually being able to remember it all

@sweetnothings > use gay as a derogatory term
you have it flipped there, but pretty close, yeah. i use non-pc words in abnormal ways in hopes that people realize they're just fucking words and have no meaning besides what's given (i use "gay" when "stupid" isn't enough but "retarded" is too much)

you were close tho

I wanted to comment "Who the hell are you?" but then I saw your username and had to shut the fuck up.
