It's why I like Lemmy, it's a safe space for Millennials and Gen X. Neither the boomers or yooths can figure out how to make an account without downloading it from the app store.

I'm gen z and go on Lemmy exclusively through an app.

Did you make an account through the app?

Most apps have a front-end for the register form, so they could have done it through an app easily.

There's probably more gen z here than you think

Some days it feels like everyone on this site is in middle school.

Gen Z here, after creating my mastodon account on an infosec instance and using that for a while, I found out about Lemmy and ditched reddit for good. So after registering on a smaller furry instance through my browser and trying a couple of different apps, I ended up here... not all of us are dumb ipad kids. Don't get me wrong either, most of my generation are indeed a bunch of skibidi-brains... but there's some hope anyways. I think. If we survive the civil unrest, climate change, the coming world war, and the general ignorance of the vast majority of our generation.... ok maybe we are fucked. I guess we can thank the boomers together for that.

You think we are that dumb? 😭 (GenZ)

Ha! You're a baby! Hey everyone, come look at this baby!

Gen Z are quite dumb. Some of them suggested me to modify my game engine to be able to be ran from a browser, I politely decline every time (I still need to move the rendering from the CPU to the GPU, since I figured out how to do retro pixel-perfect graphics, all with color lookup).

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Kinda... yeah.
