I don't know any Lemmy users IRL. I have nudged my friends towards it. My partner has asked me to post things a few times. Just curious.

Ha I'll add 0.5 to the count

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

No. No one else, which is too bad.

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

None. I normally don't give out my social media to people IRL, so there's no way they'd know I'm on Lemmy not I know they're on here either.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

0.5. One friend found my lemmy account when scouring the internet for TTRPG maps. I think that halfway counts, even if he doesn't have an account of his own.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

one of my friends uses lemmy

[โ€“] sockman 7 points 3 days ago

No. No one else, which is great.

I have had people who I know from other platforms come across me on Lemmy. Just got a DM the other day saying "Found you", we had a good laugh about it since we didn't know we both used Lemmy. However IRL I don't think anyone I know is nerd enough to be on Lemmy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Not a single one.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

I convinced one person to make an account but they don't use it. I do know another person IRL who uses Mastodon, so i send them Lemmy stuff there

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

None. Even trying to suggest Mastodon, still no luck which I just stopped as I'm just exhausted of hearing the answer "no".

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

None here, had never thought about that. Now I feel lonely.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

You have all of us and the Lemmy shenanigans. It's a pretty lively bunch.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I tell many people about it, probably none have signed up but it's not my business to know their username if they have. Might be fun to meet some of you.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I am morbidly curious what the average Lemming is like.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I have one friend that suggested him to use it, he tried it, he doesn't use it a lot, does it count?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Sure, I'll add you to the tally

I know some people using that big social network Lemmy-like. But none of them came to here.
