@FuturisticRobert @dfx @thordis @szczurtorebkowy I'm not alone!
@ritual @FuturisticRobert @dfx @thordis @szczurtorebkowy
🤚I identify as Xennial

@david_kehm @thordis
"Everybody forgets about #GenX" - Hence the X, for unknown, living in the shadow of Boomers -
@thordis I feel like I could put Gen X in the lead just by boosting this to my followers
-
@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)

Yeah I'm a Millennial (Generation Y) born Dec 18th 1983.
LOLz Boomers are only 13%, that's because for Boomers to be able vote on here they would need someone to help them vote becasue it's Tech/the Internet🤣 -

@thordis this is the Gen X-iest platform I’ve ever been on including in the 80s
-
@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 😂
@jwcph @thordis
"I don't know which of those is which" - that's because the Americans, as usual, came along and made up their own definition of Gen X well after the fact of it being a thing elsewhere in the world (U.K. and Australia at a minimum, perhaps elsewhere as well), which was like 15ish years later than the original phenomenon, and, again as usual, 🙄 American Imperialism has been winning. I've seen U.S. articles describe them precisely, but gave them some other, lesser-known name -

@thordis Sometimes I forget Millennials aren't still teenagers.

@xerge @thordis @GinevraCat I thought Gen Z was a much bigger group on here.
I think we are just the loudest.

@hosford42 if most are around 40 that would make them millennials too
@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 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 :) )

@imalcolm @Clem @hosford42 @szczurtorebkowy @thordis (i may have misunderstood this post. I assumed it was a general fediverse question, as it got boosted into my feed, but i just noticed it came from a forkiverse post, so, as im not even there, my answer doesn’t count)

@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... :-) https://tech.lgbt/@Natasha_Jay/115805631400954279
