Are we all millenials here or is that a misperception?

@thordis xeniall the best generation ever 1979 1983

@thordis This social media is a GenX's dream (please don't boost this)

[edgeofeurope@mastodon.social]

@thordis Misconception. The Fediverse is old, not Facebook old but old nonetheless.

[spruwel@chaos.social]

@thordis Depends a bit on the bubble, I guess.

I recently saw this one.

@thordis@theforkiverse.com Maybe in the forkiverse, but so far the fediverse as a whole leans more towards GenX/Boomer, millenials and younger are underrepresented.

@thordis

Funny, I feel like the place is very Gen X heavy.

@Walrus @thordis

Came here to say this *tips hat*

[reggiehere@mastodon.social]

@hajni

GenX is largely ignored, quite possibly because it's much smaller than both the Boomer and Millennial generations to either side, but it's interesting that so many of the world's leaders are still Boomers (Xi, Trump, Putin, Von Der Leyen, ...), even as they slip into senility.

@thordis I have a strong hatred of the concept of generations having hard cut offs.

Millennial

I am a person. That's it.

[thordis@theforkiverse.com]

@tieandjeans Interesting! I do enjoy this kind of analysis, as long as people don't get too obsessed with it. (My Gen Z daughter makes a huge deal out of being a different generation from her Gen Alpha brother, three years her junior....)

@thordis I'm an angry Xenial.

[tomminieminen@mastodontti.fi]

@thordis “No clue” is missing from the options.

[tattooed_mummy@beige.party]

@thordis this would have been funnier if you'd missed out the gen x option

[djgummikuh@mastodon.social]

@thordis where is Gen Y?

[flun1tr4z3p4m@mas.to]

@szczurtorebkowy @thordis exactly, 1981 here

[reggiehere@mastodon.social]

@phils

They were mostly brought up by boomers.....

@thordis

[thordis@theforkiverse.com]

@Walrus Just age groups. But you're right, it's not very diverse in terms of species. (Although I am very happy to be currently seeing quite a lot of cats.)

[threecoloured@skeptics.social]

@svenja @thordis du bist auch noch millenial, geht bis 1995

[treetreed@mastodon.social]

@thordis I would say yes, mostly millennials. The poll is probably inaccurate because a lot of early 80s millennials often consider themselves Gen X but they are not. I even see some of them admitting this already haha.
