RANKING OF GENERATION'S ACTIVITY
1. Generation X (46–60 years old) – The Sovereigns
Most Active. They see technology as a utilitarian tool, not an extension of their identity. They maintain the most personal agency because they tolerate friction and retain a healthy cynicism toward digital.
2. Millennials (30-45 years old) - The Resistance
Active/Medium. They are the bridge. They know how to actively “search” and navigate because they knew the analog world, but they constantly struggle with the social media addiction that they themselves helped to popularize.
3. Baby Boomers (61–80 years old) – Deep Attention
Medium. Although they struggle with the interface (technical passivity), their brains are not fragmented by quick dopamine hits. They retain the capacity for deep concentration (reading, reflecting) that younger people have lost.
4. Generation Z (14–29 years old) – Feed Recipients
Passive. They rarely search actively; they wait for the algorithm to serve them content. If a digital task requires effort or friction, they tend to abandon it. Their curiosity is externalized to automatic recommendations.
5. Generation Alpha (0–13 years old) – Total Passivity
The most passive. Raised with zero friction (“iPad kids”). There is no intention to search, only reaction to immediate stimuli. Their tolerance for boredom is zero, and they depend on screens to regulate their emotions.
This last generation is fucked, lol
