    Within the last 6 months there was a similar poll, it it was 67 percent boomers. So basically i think you're measuring your own graph, not that of the fediverse. Which makes it all more interesting, not less.

      I guess you were right, we're all millennials.

      That's how this winner takes all democracy thing works, right?

        @thordis Seems like I gotta get more of my generation (Gen Z) onboarded on the fediverse.

        I hope, you're right.

        This place could use a bit more of young blood and fresh perspectives.

          @thordis I have to look up these categories every time. That all suggests to me that I'm probably a boomer, but no, according to the table, I'm Gen X and have experienced digitalization. Cool.

              @thordis I am definitely Gen X. Born in 1966. I've seen the format wars: reel to reel tape, vinyl, cassette tape, Laserdisc, VHS and betamax......
              My generation ended up buying some albums and movies 3 times because the technology moved on that often! 👴

                Whatever that weird gap is between the tail-end of the Boomers and the beginning of Gen X.

                I call it "Borderline Boomer" out of respect for myself.

                Ok. I'm trying not to say old.

                  Maybe we need a category called denyllenial , they don't want to be anywhere.

                    The surest sign of my 13% boomerness is that I always have to look up the other categories... 🙄😁

                      @thordis I communicate with a lot of boomers/gen Z here in the Netherlands and Flemish Belgians and I'm one of those myself depending which birth years you handle to be a boomer or Gen Z'er.

                              @tieandjeans @thordis Boomer here with some bad news for you: I played Oregon Trail, too, on a mainframe. A friend of mine who went on to work for MECC later ported it to the Apple ][, and from there to other platforms including the PC.

                                      Gen W. Not really a 'boomer' as it was all over by then but before genX came around. The "BTDTGTTS" generation.
