There seems to be a similar general demographic of late 30’s to early 40’s users here… (could easily be my confirmation bias saying that). I was around for Napster, GeoCities, MySpace, Yahoo, Mama, AoL, AiM, and if you are ~40yo, you likely were in this same wave of broad scale adoption of the internet by average Joe jr public in the latest 90’s and early naughties. We are the first group where digital life is the rule, not the exception(s) and early adopters; the first gen of internet grandparents… How does that legacy play out. /r

    I’m just shy of 40… My ex had what’s now my son when I was 21. My son is 18 so… guess I’m kind of close to there… though my son has my level of anti-socialness so… I dont really see being a grandparent in the near future.
