younger than on Mastodon (where it’s overwhelmingly 40+)
I’m 19!
How…?
Not an expert but I believe it’s because they were born 19 years ago
Based on this poll with 599 participants from the german !ich_iel@feddit.org community, most of us are somewhere between 20 and 40 years old.
This is only a small fraction of lemmy users, maybe it just represents the age range of german meme enjoyers on lemmy, but I don’t know of any other poll with a sample size this big.
Also see stats from:
Which are pretty similar.
Yeah, prolly shifts older by 1 or 2 demographics, is my guess.
I’d say we probably skew more towards 30s-40s a lot of us are transplants from other sites and have been around the block a few times - there are certainly younger folks too, but they had to somehow trip over fediverse tech through a fluke.
Yep, 37 here.
I found Digg just before the Exodus and hung around Reddit for a decade or so then split during the Reddit blackout.Don’t forget /.
I stayed around that one for way, way too long.
Did you have to peg me that hard before we’ve even met
I would estimate
15% <25
60% 25-40
25% 40+
Y’all be showing your age sometimes 😅
Get off my lawn
I’m old as fuck. I definitely show my age as often as possible.
I showed my age in public and now I’m on a list… I keep getting AARP mailers.
Awww man, I’m 2 years away from a bracket change… My knees hurt more now.
~13-50
My steam account is nearly 20, lol
I’m 18 if that’s any help 🙃
I have no idea but I imagine most should be younger than I am (50+)
Not sure, I’m mid thirties though
Hopefully older and more mature than Reddit users.
I mean an average teen aint gonna find Lemmy or even like using Fediverse stuff, they mostly stick to mainstream social media. Sign up applications probably further weeds them out. Yay no pesky kids.
(I don’t hate younger people, I just find that many of them tend to be immature and use the anonymity of the internet to post edgy opinions like racism)
I find this being an ageist take. Not everyone is immature.
Also, speaking as someone who’s entered his 50th year, shitposting in alternative venues is not really a sign of maturity.
