Is comparing stuff from 2000-2004 to 2015-2019 the easiest way to distinguish the 2000s and the 2010s from eachother. 15 years apart from each year of the early 2000s does bring a lot of noticeable changes despite being only a decade apart.

The teenagers of the early 2000s were born in the late 80s while the teenagers of the late 2010s were born in the early 2000s. This creates a gap between the eras since they’re a reflection of each generations upbringing.

The manbun?
I'd say that's an easier way,  possibly the easiest. People who had short hair in the early 2000s would more often have a buzz cut than a manbun by a LARGE margin.

I would've said technology is an easy way to tell them apart, which it kind of is, but at the same time there were definitely people who had smartphones in 2009.

Manbun is a mid-late 2010s trend, so it still applies

Early-mid 2000s most iconic phone is the Motorola Razr while for the mid-late 2010s is the IPhone X so it still applies

Late 2000s and the early 2010s are still pretty close to eachother so the differences are a bit harder to see in comparison to the early 2000s to late 2010s since there’s a gap between them if you get what I mean

Well I thought differences are what you were looking for.

Technology is probably the easiest. Early 2000s teens had to deal more with desktop computers (for example, using AIM) and bar/flip phones while us Late 2010s teens mainly used smartphones for social media gratification.

This thread is very wrong. I really struggle to find which song belongs to which era:

Made things slow on my device!


Please limit the embedded videos to 2 per post and 3 photos per post. This INCLUDES anything within the spoiler function. But you can make as many posts as you would like.

The reason for the limit is that they don't load on some people's devices when there are so many. This is a courtesy to our fellow board members.

Thank you.

It’s pretty obvious the first one belongs to the 2000s and the second one belongs to the 2010s
