I heard that the average user is in his thirties so it skews a bit up compared to other new platforms. There are probably some tech savvy people that worked with computers until retirement on here.
I work in a care home but it doesn’t pay well, bought a bucket ton of android phones, installed Voyager and gave them to the elderly to create a Lemmy shit post botnet. All the spiciest memes come from my care home botnet with the oldest member being 102 yo.
Now I just need to find a way to monetise this endeavour.
Does Lemmy support polls? Seems like this would be a good poll.
Someone mentioned being 101 in a comment. Probably them.
Based on content? I’d say… 14-16.
On mander.xyz certainly not
71 here. (username checks out)
I was gonna guess 76
Just curious, what brought you to lemmy?
Lemmy was first released in 2019. So its oldest user can be no older than about 6 years old.
I am ancient
That certainly explains some things…
Based on the comments on some threads I’d say about 13
Ive seen lemmy generally have older people than reddit
The must be at least one 14 year old
Nah gng you fr fronting with your lame ahh statistics bro ong💀🙏
My brain
F off, cleanshirt!
Oldest I’ve seen so far claims 75. Can’t remember who it was though.
I was there Gandalf, 3000 years ago when the internet was made!
Ok boomer.
Well fuck, I’m on the young end of Gen X and I was around for the birth of the internet in '83.
What’s specific about '83? ARPANET began in 1969 and grew from there, mostly in academia, until HTTP finally transformed it into the WWW in the '90s.
The “September that never ended” began in 1993. Maybe you meant that?
I’m thinking of TCP/IP allowing for the connectivity to massively expand around '83.
Do you remember using Gopher?
I do. And telnet, and eventually winsock and altavista. I miss alt.lemmy.shitpost
There are definitely people in their 90’s using Lemmy.
For my own sake, I’m gonna assume there’s some 90+ dude in a nursing home, shitposting and laughing his ass off regularly. The nurses just assume he really likes beans or something, and that makes him laugh harder.
Keep trolling, old dude.
Old man asks for some ibuprofen, nurse gives him some
He looks at them in his palm as a devilish grin spreads across his weathered face
“…Beans…”
Literally dies of laughter
…me… and the cough cough bois… at 3am cough cough …looking for slight giggle …beans
falls over like that one piece of bread
I joined Lemmy in about 400 years, way back in 2,444.

Nice
No thnx.
There was a question posed about 60s flower children and such a bit ago they had someone saying they were one, so somewhere 70+ I’d guess.
