    @leffe Interesting!

    I'm still figuring out the federated aspect of it all, so I actually thought I was directing the question only at the fork-people (the forks? the forksters?)

      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.

      @ReggieHere @hajni @thordis

      As a millennial I always got the impression that the Boomer generation (and I only speak generally, obviously) was planning on dragging every single thing they can into the grave when they finally go. The economy, the environment, our democracies etc.

      Deprivation and salted earth is the punishment for my generation not being right-wing enough or buying into the neoliberal "grand plan".

              @NicksWorld @Scry This is what happens when we have a generational buffer overflow?

                      @thordis I'm shocked that anyone even remembers GenX exists.

                      And generally we prefer it that way, less tech support.

                        I think there is no "server only" setting for messages. 🤔

                                I believe the Boomer generation is also referred to as the 'Me' generation, and in the West it was certainly a good time to be born.

                                Full employment, good pensions, health and social care, affordable housing, free education, historically low levels of wealth inequality and historically high levels of social mobility were common before the eighties.

                                    I think my birth year (1997) has been slipped from one gen to another multiple times.

                                    I'm some sort of bonk wave generation.

                                        @thordis Pretty sure it's mostly GenX here. Some Boomers too.

                                          I think my birth year (1997) has been slipped from one gen to another multiple times.

                                          I'm some sort of bonk wave generation.

                                          I could be called a zillenial, but I'd rather suggest a moomin.
