    I’d say we probably skew more towards 30s-40s a lot of us are transplants from other sites and have been around the block a few times - there are certainly younger folks too, but they had to somehow trip over fediverse tech through a fluke.

      That’s a great point, we’ve been around the block so we’re less receptive to enshittification bullshit

    Based on this poll with 599 participants from the german !ich_iel@feddit.org community, most of us are somewhere between 20 and 40 years old.

    This is only a small fraction of lemmy users, maybe it just represents the age range of german meme enjoyers on lemmy, but I don’t know of any other poll with a sample size this big.

      Also see stats from:

      • Lemmy.nz - https://lemmy.nz/post/12001861
      • Lemmy.ca - https://lemmy.ca/post/15125231

      Which are pretty similar.

    I would estimate

    15% <25

    60% 25-40

    25% 40+

    Y’all be showing your age sometimes 😅

      I’d agree with your breakdown. I’m early 40s and I feel like most people here are give or take 10 years of me

      28 and same. A lot more millennial energy here than Gen z. Honestly Lemmy feels like 2012 reddit to me so I assume it’s mostly the same age group as me and a bit older. 🤷

    Reassessing after this week’s events, most of the users I would have previously guessed were high school sophomores are probably adult Americans.
