Are we all millenials here or is that a misperception?

@thordis I'm Gen X and I'm in this poll. I find that confusing, being so used to being overlooked.

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

@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)

@thordis I am socially on the GenX side of Xennial, firmly part of Generation Oregon Trail.

@AngelaPreston @thordis I was born in 1999 so I do believe I'm a millennial.

@thordis nearly 73 so a boomer

@szczurtorebkowy Yeah, I'm right on the cusp too, born in 1981.

@thordis @GinevraCat I feel gen-x is the largest group, but I could be wrong. Bubbles form easily.

@thordis Wanna hear something fun? I don't know which of those is which, including which one I belong in - and apparently I don't want to know, because I've read about it dozens of times & it just won't stick

@david_kehm @thordis Billy Idol?

@szczurtorebkowy @thordis
Same, young for a gen X, old for a Milennial

@thordis I can never remember which one I am. I had to look it up!

@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

@NicksWorld I think that actually puts you on the Gen Z side!

@Scry Are you sure?

@NicksWorld I mean it's all totally arbitrary, haha. I'm '77, and fit in more with Millennials than Gen Xers. But yeah I think Millennial is considered '81-96?

@Scry I consider my kid brother to be generation Z. He was born in 2015.

@thordis where’s the option for “I don’t recognise your marketing segments as something to identify with”?

@thordis pressed other because i dont know in which category i am and i am too lazy to look it up
