@thordis Zillenial, technically. Generations don't have that rigid of boundaries IMO. Gonna mark it as gen Z, but, like, elder gen Z

@Clem @hosford42 @szczurtorebkowy @thordis
That's funny, cos that description is almost word for word the standard description of Gen X, apart from the bit at the end.
But hey, us GenX-ers are used to having our experiences misappropriated - when we're not being completely ignored/forgotten, of course. It's the other main generational cliche about us, apart from our endless snark and weary cynicism.
️@imalcolm @Clem @hosford42 @szczurtorebkowy @thordis exactly! Im a very early gen Xer and ive worked in IT since before i finished uni. No idea where this concept comes from (ie i know plenty of people from every generation who have no idea how to fully use their tech
) -

@thordis i guess if one is a Gen Ifer, they'd pick "other"?

@thordis - I have it on good authority (@Natasha_Jay) that this is where "elder millennials, Gen Xers and boomers come to retire from the Internet" Well, if the shoe fits...

@olliestudio45 @hosford42 Yep. Most of the people I know on here are 50+, the seniors corner of the internet with everyone who built and maintained it

@thordis I honestly have very little idea what ranges of years these labels represent, and I'm not sure that stereotyping people is a meaningful or good practice in general. But I looked up what wikipedia suggested and put that in.

@Clem @szczurtorebkowy @thordis I don't feel lucky. I feel like I'm watching all my hopes and dreams be torn down for good, just as they were about to finally be within reach. The stuff I worked toward my whole life... I worked toward it for nothing. All the angst, trying to be good enough for my parents and then my children, only to find out it was pointless because it doesn't matter what I do or did. The world has turned to a giant dumpster fire, and I don't know how we will ever climb out of it.
@hosford42 @Clem @szczurtorebkowy @thordis Well, looks it's time to be try see the things more optimistic way, man. Or at least sarcastic

@thordis I really don't like these useless titles given to each generation. It's glorified marketing and the data is pointless, considering we're all human. Oh well, marketing ganna Market. Investors ganna invest. Just my 2 cents.

@thordis @gdinwiddie why are Boomers and Gen Alpha in the same option? Feels like "oh, and I guess we shoukd include forget the outliers".

@thordis
Why would boomers be lumped in with generation alpha? There's a huge gap between us!I already feel weird enough being one of the few early adopters, extreme leftists, and technophiles of my generation. Now I'm being lumped in with 15-year-olds?

@thordis not all millennials - I'm GenX (early 70's) but am, slightly, unusual in that my dad wasn't a boomer (he was born during not after WWII) and my mom is similarly not really of the boomers (she was at Berkeley in the 60's - as was my dad - though my dad was in grad school and famously wore a suit & tie to Jefferson Airplane concerts) but also because my mom has been a programmer since the 1960's (and my grandfather wrote code though mostly designed satellites and planes) so really GenGeek
