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.

MrBabyMan was a user who posted lots of content that made the front page of digg.com, back when it was a hip start up run by Kevin Rose and before it collapsed and most of its users migrated to Reddit. Early on at digg, it was pretty easy to make the front page, but over time it became really difficult and digg kept updating their algorithm to make it harder in an effort to discourage spammers and people gaming the system. However, despite all of this MrBabyMan was always able to get posts to the front page. It was multiple per day if I remember. So MrBabyMan was a power user.
NPR even did a story on him: https://www.npr.org/2008/05/23/90755408/an-internet-tastemaker-diggs-himself-a-hole
