Is Roblox more of a Gen Z or Gen Alpha game? I played it often in 2014-2016 but it wasn’t too popular back then. It seems like every kid is playing it now though. It is obviously both, but I would say it is more of a Gen Alpha game based on how popular it is today.

I don’t understand why people be trying to group 1999 with the early 2000s it’s the late 90s the last year in the 90s at that 2000 is the start of the 2000s & 1999 is the end of the 90s it’s common sense “Nineteen Ninety Nine” “Two Thousand”

Age groups and generations are not the same and it's silly to gatekeep somebody for being born in a year anyways.

If yes or no, why do you think so?

Considering that the WHO declared the pandemic to be over in May of 2023, that would make 2004 the last year to be a part of the COVID graduates along with 2002-2003 so I believe that pandemic graduates are 2002-2004 with 2005 and after being the post pandemic graduates. Restrictions may have been lifted around late 2021 to early 2022, but omnicron was a deadly variant at the time and it was still at large. That’s why I consider 2022 to be the last year of the pandemic though not as extreme as 2020 and 2021 were.

in 2009 i moved to oulu in finland since i wanted calmer place to life and not large city

Name calling generations isn’t a solution, targeting generations isn’t cool, telling others what they should grow up with if they are born in a certain generation doesn’t make you better than them. That needs to stop, belittling a generation or someone’s preferences doesn’t make you better or cooler than them either.

This really needs to stop, it doesn’t do anything than separate others.

It ends up making everyone feeling aggressed and or misunderstood.

As long as you are not invaliding anyone, generations, preferences and experiences!

My English a little rough no I'm not slow lol. Here we go now. I think the reason 1997 claims millennials a lot of the time and let's 1996 claims gen z but 1995 claims millenial.

I think 1995 claims millenial bcuz of their age not pushing but touching 30 They see gen z as kids.

I think 1996 claims z sometimes bcuz 2016-2019 they were the 1997 of those years. They were typically the start. So they align a lot of times despite the range may consider them millenial sometimes

I think 1997 has those same valid experiences most 90s babies had but I think bcuz they got the start range from pew they've kind of been grouped in with kids in their opinion and they constantly see ages near there's bein called old and stuff so I think they like if 1995-1996 are old they'll eventually push us out too. I think that's why they try to separate themselves suddenly bcuz when I first joined all the 1997 were proudly claiming gen z. A lot of 1996 was too. Now with the negative stereotypes of gen z they starting to feel disconnected as well. I think it's confusing for 25-28 as far as the gen they "belong to" for those who say other gens need a "micro gen" they do have one gen x and millennials have xllenials boomers and gen x I think it's called gen jones or some and for us it's zillenials. So no we aren't wanting special treatment. Those of us who use those terms believe in cusps. So we believe ALL gens can be cuspy at some point. Lastly everyone is individual and we shouldn't force tings on eachother. Let people live and choose for them self

The “mid millennials” may refer to quintessential millennials. These charts relate GDP per capita to what’s called “relative millennialness”. When the GDP is lower, the mid millennial year goes up (transfluence), so people not from the US can modify ranges.

I’m not sure how the “relative millennialness” is calculated here.

1996 may be gen z or not. Maybe millennial or not but the whole 1997-zillenial range is rage bait. Evo knows 1996 is peak zillenial. Anyone over 24ish or 25ish knows that for a fact. Those of y'all who werent born it's cool to give your opinion but make sure it's researched and knowledgeable. It's a thing on this sub where 1996 and -1997 CONSTANTLY get separated. Irl y'all these folks grew up together, some are bsf so to imply 1996 borns are old asl and act like 1997 is somehow eons younger is kind of weird and age discrimination in a way. Those are 90s years. We all kno frl the 1996-2001 so 1997 cant be anything different than 1996 was. The era was the same. Go ahead and separate 1999 but 1996-1998 is like separating 2012-2014 these are mimic years which means like theres no shifts in them if that make sense. Are y'all feelin me? 😂 I know I suck at explaining stuff but I'm trying my best so sorry if it's seems stupid or poorly described. It's ok if no one agreea please no hostility

Honestly, I decided to flair this post as a hot take, since I definitely have a feeling some ppl will be triggered or taking this the wrong way into thinking their different from their neighbors, when I will tell y'all rn that's NEVER the case! No matter what, u're always gonna be extremely similar to ur neighbors, I promise!

It's just for this post in particular, I'll be ranking each pair of neighboring birth years & ranking them from making the most, to least amount of sense for drawing a line between them! What I mean by this, is basically comparing by how many significant lasts one birth year has, to also comparing the other birth year's significant firsts!

I'll rank birth years from the Second-Half '90s borns, to the First-Half 2010s borns, (1994/5 - 2014/5) as that's just how many I'll be able to fit, as well as being pretty much the majority of this sub's demographic & 2014 is often talked a lot abt being the very last possible end date for Gen Z going by the overall viewpoint of this sub, lol.

Anyways with that being said, the one's I think makes the most sense will be ranked on the top, to least ranked on the bottom:

1. 2001/2002

2. 1994/1995

3. 2014/2015

4. 2008/2009

5. 1998/1999

6. 2011/2012

7. 2006/2007

8. 1996/1997

9. 2003/2004

10. 2010/2011

11. 2004/2005

12. 2002/2003

13. 2005/2006

14. 2013/2014

15. 1997/1998

16. 2007/2008

17. 2000/2001

18. 1999/2000

19. 2009/2010

20. 1995/1996

21. 2012/2013

They are often placed in ranges like 1-3 as toddlerhood and 3-5 as preschool age.

Should 3 years olds olds be considered toddlers or preschoolers? Why or why not?

By total years:

Going by xxx0-xxx9, a decade, xxx2, is the year in which 25% of the period has passed. Likewise xxx7, would be the year in which 75% of the period has passed. So early could be the first 25%, mid could be 25%-75%, and late would be 75%+.

early - xxx0-xxx2

mid - x3-x6

late - x7-x9.

By splitting months to be more numerically exact:

Jan 1 xxx5 is the epicenter of xxx0-xxx9. July X2 is the first month that is closer to January 1, x5 than to January 1, x0. And July xxx7 is the first month that is closer to December, xxx9 than to January 1, xxx5. Therefore

Early - January xxx0-June xxx2, as those months are closer to the start of the decade than the middle.

Mid - July xxx2-June xxx7 are mid, as they are closer to January 1, xxx5 than they are to the beginning and end of the decade.

Late - July xxx7 - December xxx9, as they are closer to the end of the decade rather than the middle.

i just wanted to put these here to see if they were good

childhood - 3-12 (core, 5-10) teenagehood - 13-17 (extended 13-19) young adult hood - 18-23 (extended 18-25), its even and i stopped at 23 due to it leaning to having a slightly underdeveloped brain

Just my opinion, I don’t think any 90s babies should be gen z, and it would make more sense for gen z to start in the 2000s( it really doesn’t matter considering gen z is mostly us 2000s babies anyway)

81 is literally the same decade as her (12-13-89).

I could see boomers liking folklore/evermore and midnights most of those songs have a lo fi folksy pop sound that could remind them of Joni Mitchell or the Woodstock vibes. I could see Gen Xers liking upbeat boppable tracks on fearless speak now and red because a lot of 80s teens are country fans these days. For 90s teens (late X) I think certain "1989" tracks like out of the woods and style, as well as reputation being darker and angrier would hit hard with either alternative rock or Lilith Fair style 90s pop fans.

I don’t understand how you can gatekeep 2006 borns but constantly group yourself in with 1998 borns. I understand completely that one is 18 and the other is 26, but it still makes zero sense. Both years are the same length both ways so it’s just really ridiculous imo. 06 borns will be in their 20s soon just like 02 is rn and definitely wouldn’t make any sense. I just hate seeing people gatekeep younger people while always wanting to be seen as older.

PART 8!

DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT MY OPINION IM NOT TRYNA GATEKEEP

legit when you go to google this is basically the main overlap zone (im pretty sure there are like a few sources that say 2009 and maybe even 2008 is gen alpha and 2013, maybe even 2014-2015 is gen z)

part 1: 2008-2013 part 2: 2009-2014 part 3: 2006-2012 part 4: 2010-2015 part 5: 2011-2014 part 6: 2011-2016 part 7: 2012-2016

1. 2012-2016 3.4 (above average)
2. 2010-2015 3.1 (okay) [tie]
3. 2011-2014 3.1 (okay) [tie]
4. 2011-2016 2.5 (below average)
5. 2009-2014: 2 (bad)
6. 2008-2013: 1.7 (bad)
7. 2006-2012: 1.3 (very bad)

i prolly rate this like a 2, i see where people are coming from but like at the same time its like 2010 has almost 0 firsts and 2012 has almost 0 lasts

leave ur thoughts/opinions in the comments if u want, im also gonna extend voting to 3 days bc like it took me a week to get this part out (mainly cuz i forgot lol) (i was gonna delete this but this still hold true lol)

Who are the teenagers or the main teenage group that had their teenage years impact by Covid in the early 2020s?

View Poll

I grew up on VHS’s, I was born in a home with two older siblings (1980-1999) So I got what they had, we barely had dvds, so a lot of the Disney, Pixar, and others were all on mainly VHS, even our holiday movies where also where on VHS too! We had a lot of hand me downs as well, so the majority of the VHS collection was hand me downs too!

If you grew up similar to me, or mainly grew up with VHS’s (or other technology too) you are valid to me, you are enough, even if your parents didn’t follow with trending stuff, you are still valid! Remember that <3 everyone’s childhoods can be different due to their environment or financial circumstances in their family but I would never exclude others because they grew up differently, don’t let people pick on you for not being involved with trends!

Btw it’s not my range I don’t actually have a gen z range yet but I’m interested to see peoples opinions on this range.

View Poll

I find that lots of people on this sub are very dismissive or outright aggressive over placements in specific subgroups within generations, usually I feel, because it is often a blanket label meaning to divide and lock people into stereotypes that might not agree with their lived experience. As a result I thought maybe a more fluid, percentage based system would be better suited since it avoids outright locking people who might be on the cusp of one group and another in with people years younger or older rather than their immediate neighbors. I provided an example below. Does this work better?

Edit: deleted the example I gave because everyone is focusing on it rather than the question itself. The point of the post wasn't the percentages I provided, that was merely one example of how a percentage system might work out of hundreds of different ways to do it.

The atrocious Early Gen Z range if going by McCrindle... 😑 I honestly don't find this range very good at ALL imo, lol.

What happened in Argentine music in the 1960s? What was there before Los Gatos' hit in 1967? How did we go from Los Cinco Latinos in 1960 to Manal in 1969?

For many years these enigmatic mysteries were black holes, missing pieces in the puzzle to reconstruct the history of Argentine rock since its beginning in 1956. Researchers of the history of Argentine music have had to do real detective work with scarce information, scattered and hidden after almost 7 decades of oblivion, to decipher what happened at that crucial moment in the 1960s.

Now that the entire decade of the '60s has been completed in the Argentine Rock Awards, with 10 editions and 1 archedition, we can see that:

• 1960 was a continuation of the jazz and blues trends that came from the 50s.
• Between 1961 and 1964 it was the reign of the nueva ola and the Club del Clan.
• From 1965 the reign of the beat began (although the Argentine beat had already begun the previous year with the recording debut of Los Búhos), and it would continue like this for the rest of the decade.
• The different trends from 1965 onwards follow the evolution of The Beatles and other Anglo-Saxon bands through their records and proposals.
• Rock, in all its genres, trends and expressions, always throughout the 60s bothered and irritated the older generations, who were followers of tango, folklore, classical music, jazz and typical music from the countries where the immigrants came from.
• In the first half of the decade, the influence of Italian artists predominates.
• In the second half of the decade, the influence of English artists predominates.
• In all the years of the decade there is a great cultural diversity and proposals, with a great variety of songs: originals in Spanish or English, versions in various languages, instrumentals, hits, experimental, and all the genres of the time: jazz, R&B, rock and roll, pop, twist, surf, beat, folk, hard, psychedelic, etc.

These are the conclusions I have drawn from these studies. Now it is up to you to draw further conclusions. And to explore on your own more songs and artists from that period, using the project I have made as a basis or backbone. That was the intention, that it would be like an introduction to a new world. A handful of first songs to which you would add more songs that you would discover for yourself. Or like a main avenue, from which you would open in various directions, creating new streets.

The Argentine Rock Awards are on pause for an indefinite period of time. There have been major changes in my personal life lately, which means I can no longer dedicate as much time to the channel as before, or to prepare projects as titanic as those of my videos. I'll leave it up to you to delve into what other songs and artists there were in those years, and to continue the research about the following years. I've done my part, now it's up to you to continue the legacy.

And remember: if you want to talk to me or make proposals, please contact me via direct message.

Have a happy end of the year everyone.

MusicaArgentina — 2024

Here’s why 2004-2009 borns(or 2005-2008) UNQUESTIONABLY are closer to millennials than Gen Ai.

1.They were born during the emergence of social media & were amongst some of the youngest alive during the ‘08 recession.

2.They were kids during the smartphone takeover.

3.Were both Middle & high schoolers during Covid.

4.Were high schoolers when ChatGPT released & the end of Covid.

5.The kid & youth culture they grew up with is MUCH closer to the ones of a millennial than a Ai.(lasted from about 2010-2016 & 2019-2025 respectively)

None of these are EVEN close to A. They are DEFINITELY closer to the life experiences of a millennial. But let’s be honest, someone born in these years(2004-09) aren’t EVEN close to either generation. But they are OBVIOUSLY older Homelanders so they relate with the previous generation more than the following(Ai) to me.

99 babies What are the reasons you love your birth year?? Why is it the best year to you?? Ain’t nothing wrong with loving your year I just wanna know your thoughts and opinions about it

1998-2013

Early: 1998-2002

Core: 2003-2008
