At least on the communities i follow. Every so often I come across a thread where i recognize most of the users there even in the big communities with over 30k members and I haven't even been on lemmy that long.

Do you identify as being part of this class?

I comment quite a lot and post relatively often, so i do think i am one of the handful of users I'm referring to. Whether my contributions make any difference is what i don't know

'Make any difference' in what sense?

I do recall an exchange where you gracefully bowed out of a discussion with another commented. I appreciated seeing that

What i mean by "make any difference" is whether specific discussions or communities would be any different if i hadn't contributed. I'm also happy that you appreciate my concessions
