Are we all millenials here or is that a misperception?

@thordis who has that misconception?! Honestly, I'm surprised genX isn't a flat out majority. Mastodon is basically the internet we grew up with.
@Dubikan I guess I did
-
@thordis GenX gets on my nervesssss! Everybody is blaming boomers for everything, but it’s GenX that are the real menaces (I can’t prove it yet)
-
@mndflayr wow look I learned something today!

That doesn't seem to be a feature, but I agree that it should.

If you post something with a public setting it is visible to all servers (unless your server has blocked a particular server).
There are really important reasons why it's federated into lots of smaller servers: https://fedi.tips/why-is-the-fediverse-on-so-many-separate-servers

Could people boozt this? I am so curious.
Are you a:
I was sure I was "gen Y", and that it was distinct from "millenials" but it seems not.
So Millenial here, but as I'm in France and everything is shifted, I see some similarities with gen X too. -

Are you a:
@thordis I was born at the statistical cusp of the boomers and generation x, which means I am about the same age as the characters in Douglas Coupland's novel Generation X.

Are you a:
@thordis I'm on the cusp ("Xennial" is such an ugly word) and, apparently, there's some astrological reason why people from the year of my birth are actually more aligned with Gen Z. I'm also a child of cusp generation people raised by older parents than their cohort, so they didn't get socialized to their expected gen's values. So generational categories don't serve me well but I have a definite allegiance to one of the generations, the one I voted for.

Calling a server forkiverse can maybe be seen as misleading. It's still part of the fediverse.

Are you a:
@thordis @IanAMartin Gen X? Is that someone in X-men ?
-
@thordis I'm Gen X and I'm in this poll. I find that confusing, being so used to being overlooked.
@linuxandyarn @thordis same

@ReggieHere @thordis you shouldn’t group Von der Leyen with the dictators lmao

Are you a:
@thordis@theforkiverse.com I'm still confused as to what these words actually mean, I think I've been called 3 out of those? Also been called "weird youth" by a person 1 year younger than me, so there's that I guess.

So Millenial here, but as I'm in France and everything is shifted, I see some similarities with gen X too.It was Gen Y afaik, followed by Gen Z(oomer).
Not sure why it changed, maybe a millennium thing?

Are you a:
@thordis GenX/Millennial Cusper. The Oregon Trail generation as it is sometimes called. Also Xennial, apparently.

Are you a:
Xennial here. I seem to have been one of the first millennials to be born, and have more in common with the tail end of Generation X than with Zillennials.

@thordis I'm a zoomer but I grew up in the early 2000s so I kinda relate to millennials lmao

Discrete generations is utter nonsense on a par with astrology. Human reproduction is continuous.I am not a cicada

@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
