I won’t lie, I feel like an outcast and I imagine majority of Lemmy are Millennials and Gen-X. The r/GenZ subreddit is mostly garbage but still want find an online community that is for Gen-Z by Gen-Z so I can use less of Reddit if possible. I know, I commited biggest sin on Lemmy for using Reddit.
I’m not sure if I would have the time and energy to make a community from scratch. Mainly just trying to sell the idea of Lemmy to people without sounding pretentious. Also, I did suggested Mastodon to my friends and was disinterested. Not going to lie, it did a hurt a bit as I do feel bit passionate about the Fediverse and I feel weird for being interested which most people in their 20s won’t care and using Instagram or TikTok instead.
That’s sorta the thing though. Once you’re working age the age divisions mostly become working age, retirees, and young folks.
The day to day we’re all suffering through is pretty fucking similar. Even Gen-X isn’t swimming in money or anything - our experience is shared.
I don’t want to say that doesn’t happen at all but what I mean was just asking a community that primarily is Gen-Z can talk about whatever they feel nostalgic (like whatever TV-Show or games I used to played).
But instead, Lemmy users had to be unhinged and spin it into something that apparently I want some kind of generation war or support a “divide”. I might just go back to Reddit if they are this passive aggressive and take anything in bad faith
Yes. Reddit. Land of good faith void of passive aggression.
