    I feel like gen z caught the full destruction of 3rd spaces that melenials still caught the tail end of.

    I’d love a community space to share my knowledge of pre-zuck-thiel tech with. I feel like the complete destruction of 3rd spaces are part of why there is such poor knowledge xfer between z and millennials

      Millennials caught the tail end of physical 3rd spaces, but experienced the golden age of digital third spaces. The internet until the mid 2000s was way more decentralised and chaotic.

      Instead of anonymous chatrooms and forums as digital 3rd spaces, Zoomers used less accessible proprietary options such as Discord or Twitch instead.
