I have the feeling that people in the Threadyverse are on average younger than on Mastodon.

My assumption is:

  • Mastodon: 30 - 45
  • Lemmy, /kbin: 25 - 40

There are polls like that on Mastodon whichvpoint to that, but I haven't seen any on the Threadyverse.

I'm the same age as my tongue, and a bit older than my teeth

I’m old enough to know how to use a rotary phone and a paper map

Paper maps... Man

Just turned forty, don't work in tech. Yeah, I know I'm the weirdo here.

Though it does seem so far like lemmings act less teenaged than redditors.

You're overestimating Mastodon. I'd say both are closely similar in demographics.

As old as the universe, baby. I am stardust.

Old enough to have had a computer that ran cassette tapes and drink driving wasn’t illegal

I would actually expect Lemmy to be on the older end - it'll be the older people who remember what social media was like before the term "social media" was a thing.

That's classified.

I'm 47 and am using both Mastodon and Lemmy.
