No, I'd be extremely suspicious of such person.

This is such a good response!! Love it
No. Even when I look in the mirror, I deny it.
Beat me to it. This was the first thing that came to my mind, too.
Me too. Uh oh.

Bold of you to assume that I know anybody in real life.
Yes my sibling uses Lemmy. It was them that prompted me to join.
Yes I have been a Lemmy advocate since I joined, but I have only ever gotten one person to use Lemmy. I told one of my daughters friends mom about Lemmy. She does not allow her daughter to use social media. Except for Lemmy.
So that is it. My one conversion. I have kind of given up on trying to convert people. I still love Lemmy and the Fediverse, but the year of Lemmy mainstream has yet to come.
Yes. I shared a Star Trek meme with a coworker and they asked me where I got it. I told them about Lemmy and Tenforward and another coworker chimed in with "where every Vulcan knows your name"
I thought we were all bots.
Hmm. I thought I was a paid schill.
Still trying to figure out the getting paid part.
It depends on what you’re peddling.
MAGA gets paid in lies, and progressives in disappointment. Liberals and conservatives get a weekly stock tip call from Pelosi or Tuberville, respectively. Tankies get paid in vodka and cigarettes, and libertarians in crypto.
What do anarchists get paid in? Weed?
If you take a look at the most valuable thing in my appartment, that would seem to be the case

Whoa, hey, I could be getting vodka and cigarettes? I'm switching teams.

It took 10 years to meet anyone that used Reddit. I assume it's gonna take another 10 to meet anyone on this platform.

no and i don't think anyone here is real. every account is a russian psyop bot trying to make leftists appear insane and stupid
You were programmed to say that because I’m the only one that’s real.
Other way around, I know people in rl through lemmy.
Guy from work posted a Lemmy meme link.
God, I hope not.
Really, this amounts to a question of who has recommended lemmy to others. Which is an interesting question.
I've recommended it to others, but none are interested, which is extra surprising considering how many of them work in tech or tech adjacent.

I do. But despite my best efforts at explaining and advertising this platform, none of my friends seem to care 🥲.
That's crazy. How are they keeping up with news about Trump and Musk then?

I don't even know anyone who uses BlueSky and that's considerably more trendy lately. Granted, most of my contacts are 20 something college girls so it's pretty much TikTok as far as the eye can see.
not that I'm aware. my wife made an account somewhere but doesn't use it
Not enough grimdank to keep them
Yes, myself. That's it though
My own spouse, but...as the statisticians would say, that is not really two independent samples.
Well of course I know him. He's me.
No. Thank God.
