Thanks, I almost forgot to shave 15% of my neck today!
I’m 30, so naturally I assume everyone else is too
I'm 31. From what I've seen, a large portion are around this age. I think there's very few young people.
not completely correct! 19
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. 🤷
31, assume the same
Around 9 years old. Could be some 11 year olds in there.
I'm only 9 because thats when I died.
0-100 I believe
There have been several polls. We're older and more female than you think.
How female are you?
-75%
Hey, Imaginary Percentages, cool!
i%
To generate Complex Demographic on a Cartesian plane.
I've been feeling more female ever since I got here, but maybe there's no correlation
Seems like a young crowd to me based on the often naive and idealistic post replies. OTOH, I'm very often surprised that so many seem my age (50s).
There's at least one 57 year old.
Two.
Three.
Do we have to be 57? I just wanted to be part of a counting train.
I'm 34, maybe if you're 23 and you climb on my shoulders
It's probably wiser if you climb on the 23 year old's shoulders instead. They don't need ibuprofen for back pain yet
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.
Yep, 37 here.
I found Digg just before the Exodus and hung around Reddit for a decade or so then split during the Reddit blackout.
I'm 27, and came here after the reddit blackout. Digg was before my time on the Internet. What was it like?
39 here, exact same backstory.
Similar age here.
Not into social media and Reddit now sucks.

Don’t forget /.
I stayed around that one for way, way too long.

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.
Two 13-15 year old users
Does Lemmy even have a minimum age or TOS?
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

I'm 19!
Hi 19 I'm dad.
How..?
Not an expert but I believe it's because they were born 19 years ago
18 - 30
