Same
Hello fellow... are we considered as gen-zedders or tail end millennials? Because I have friends born in 97 and they are definitely not Gen Z

I grew up around cousins who were all older than me, so I think I was influenced more by 90s culture than most of my peers. I think you and I are the awkward in-between.

Yes this is how I feel as well

The older you get, the more you see generational cuttoffs as a load of bullshit.

1997 is a funny birthyear 😀 on one hand you grow up in "traditionell way" and thus you understand older folks who don’t understand new slang but on the other hand you understand the digital natives who grow up with all that attention grabbing BS.

Yeah, I feel like people born up until around the early 00s still got to experience what life without smartphones & social media was like

For just a few years, yes.
