        @thordis The new forkiverse people might be millennial leaning, but the rest of masto tends to be older.

        @Bumblefish @thordis Yeah I was surprised to hear of someone thinking it was mostly millennials here. The polls I've seen before had most people here around ~40 yo. Of course, that's probably a biased sample because of the whole "birds of a feather" thing

              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.

              And all of that reversed while I went from born to adult, thanks to bullshit "trickle down" economics. (Don't ask what is trickling. It isn't money.)

                                @thordis Fediverse DOES have a network of smaller Gen Z servers

                                but they tend to be Queer or Furry focused. and occasionally Game Development

                                they are also quite insular for valid reasons, and I'm certainly not going to list a bunch so everyone can go bother their users

                                but they are with us. you just need to move in the correct circles and they will pop up to make you feel ancient

                                  depends on who's slicing whether I'm millennial or X; I don't really feel a part of either clade tbh.

                                        @hosford42 @szczurtorebkowy @thordis ostensibly it's centered around us being born into a totally analog world that still played outside all day without supervision and movies and TV had production values still and there were Rolodexes, but then we were still young enough for the flip to a digital society to be able to implant itself in our lives in a way that the Lead Paint Generation and Gen X was just a little too old and inelastic for. Some of them could, but not overall.
