With so many new CoSonauts, it's time to do a generation check! (For fun 😁)

What generation are you? (Year ranges used as they appear on Wikipedia)
Thank you 😊!

We seem to have more boomers than the first time we had this poll! 🙌🏻😀🙌🏻🤍

@Blue_Skyesr_here Not surprising we're the first gen that grew up with computers & the adaptive thinking they require.💻 😎

@Blue_Skyesr_here The votes are trending towards what it seems, a younger core group here.

@gemswinc The youngest are totally absent though, and Millennials seem to be a small group 🤔

@gemswinc Yeah, this kind of interaction is probably not their thing

@Blue_Skyesr_here
I consider myself GenX in 1965 as many charts use...
As my father was 13 at the end of the war...
Or the ten I found once... Cusper...
Those who can fall either way from 63-67...

@InvaderGzim For consistency though, I want to use the same table for everyone although I know there are several different age ranges and that a lot of people consider themselves as falling into "micro-generations". I think it's perfectly normal to associate more with one or the other depending on your personal experience, especially when born in between those years, Generation Jones is the micro gen from the late 50s to early 60s. Same with Xennials who don't identify as Millennials 😎.

@Zaptrapped ha! I love that Generation name! 😄 BoomX has a nice ring to it! 🎶

@Blue_Skyesr_here Thanks for breaking it down so I know what group my kids are in. 😸

@Blue_Skyesr_here I missed this, but count me in as another Gen X Cosonaut here! :)

@Blue_Skyesr_here There really is! I wonder if that's what contributes to this place being a bit more calm? Either way, i like it. 🙂

@ChillySnowgirl I think in part it is and @th3j35t3r really makes sure it stays that way, which discourages trolls ...and other unsavory characters 😆

@Blue_Skyesr_here @th3j35t3r We're incredibly lucky not only to have the place to gather, but the increased safety & features offered here, and J willing to give up his time to care for it. ❤️

@ChillySnowgirl @th3j35t3r In times like this, when everywhere you go online you find so much unpleasant, crazy and even dangerous stuff/people, this is definitely a little sane haven!

@Blue_Skyesr_here i think i must be a boomer (although my son is a bit disparaging about boomers so i would rather be an old bird!)

@bonzo CoSo is a great example of how generalizations about boomers or Gen X are often wrong. Especially the Jones micro generation boomers..
