    @thordis The thing about this poll is that if you know Gen X at all, it’s that most of us can’t be *bothered* to do something. It’s literally a defining trait of our generation.

    So the (current) 36% that is Gen X probably doesn’t account for the 4 out of every 5 GenXers who actually saw the poll.

              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.

                                @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.
