My general metric:

Hahaha = gen x

Lol = older millenial

Lmao = younger millenial

πŸ’€ = Gen z

[-] thegreenguy@sopuli.xyz 14 points 4 months ago

I'm Gen Z and use all of them

[-] Lyre@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 months ago

For me its moreso about what the older gens won't use than what the younger ones will

[-] otp@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 months ago

Most Gen Z aren't children though

[-] Lyre@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 months ago

When i figure out what gen a's 'funny' synonym is I'll update the list

From what I've seen it's also πŸ’€

This is at least true for me as I'm an xennial or whatever and i use both lol n haha depending on my mood but never lmao. Lol

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I am a xennial as well and that was dangerously close to using lol as punctuation which will lose you that sweet xennial cred.

Seriously though I'm happy to be from this microgeneration. Analog childhood/digital adulthood makes for cool people.

[-] Lyre@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

I'm a lmaoer myself but i can throw in a lol depending on who I'm talking to.

[-] rothaine@beehaw.org 2 points 4 months ago
