      @u0421793 @thordis but there was a baby boom after WW2 ended.
      Lots of people, who had interrupted family life because of the war married or just reunited and had children so the birth rate rocketed. Hence the term Baby Boomer.
      I'm one of those children.

      @marjolica @thordis I bet more babies were born during or shortly after the early 70s nightly power cuts 🙂

          @david_megginson

          Yeah the boomer designation really covers two generations with two very different life experiences. The ones at the older end are old enough to be parents of those of us at the younger end, and I don't relate to them/their experiences at all.

          We are actually "Jonesers" or "Generation Jones": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Jones

              @thordis
              I picked Gen X, but really I'm one of those middling Oregon Trail people who fits cleanly in neither the X nor the Millennial box. Ultimately I have decided that the dividing line should be century of high school graduation, which is why I choose as I did.

                    FYI: The correct spelling is "millennial", not "millenial". You've left out one of the "n".

                      @marjolica @thordis there's no one definitive definition. I've also seen

                      1946-1964 - baby boomers
                      1965-1984 - gen x
                      1985-2005 - millennials

                      Etc... as that way each generation is exactly 20 years.

                      The origin stories podcast had an episode last week called "boomers" which talks about the various ways the generations can be defined.

                          @darkphoenix @marjolica @thordis i consider myself gen x more than I do a millennial. I'd use the term xenial, if it didn't annoy me so much.

                                    @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

                                        I keep getting surprised when I notice yet another co-cohort or older human. Not that one always can tell, but on previous social media I kept getting the impression that most of the folk I knew were a couple of decades younger.
