What generation are you?

As a fellow Gen Zer I feel like there is a generational gap. I want to see if I'm trippin or there actually is one.

i just wanted to know your age without invading privacy. a threshold is better than a number

Well, in that case, maybe this is interesting to you. I ran a user survey last year for my instance and anyone else wanting to answer and one question was age. Here's the age group graph:

The y-axis is number of respondents, x-axis is age group. Obviously this only applies to the people that responded to the survey and thus might not apply in general to the fediverse, but it's probably an indication. And, well, it's mostly smoothly distributed without any major gaps or humps (slight hump at 30-34 but not sure if that's statistically significant).

thats cool. that hump might be random as well

People 25 to 39 are more likely to respond to an age survey on the Internet?

That is also possible, but I think it's more likely to show the actual distribution rather than a bias like that. But sure.
