    There’s at least one 57 year old.

    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.

    Based on this poll with 599 participants from the german [email protected] 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.

      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

      I’m old as fuck. I definitely show my age as often as possible.

        I showed my age in public and now I’m on a list… I keep getting AARP mailers.

    I have no idea but I imagine most should be younger than I am (50+)

      This few years are the largest single age years in us population. I think 34 is peak. In US at least.

    Hopefully older and more mature than Reddit users.

    I mean an average teen aint gonna find Lemmy or even like using Fediverse stuff, they mostly stick to mainstream social media. Sign up applications probably further weeds them out. Yay no pesky kids.

    (I don’t hate younger people, I just find that many of them tend to be immature and use the anonymity of the internet to post edgy opinions like racism)

        Also, speaking as someone who’s entered his 50th year, shitposting in alternative venues is not really a sign of maturity.
