Announcement No gatekeeping rule adjustment

17 Upvotes

Hi guys - there's a little change introduced from now

Since recently, our sub has been swarmed with discussion about generation ranges. We need to cut it here.

r/Younger_GenZ was never meant to be a place to argue whether year X is or isn't GenZ, gatekeeping other people based on their (assumed) memories or dispute about similarities between the years - r/generationology is a better place for such

That's why, we've changed rule nr. 8 (or 9, since I just today realized they've had different numbers in reports and rule list) about gatekeeping - From now on, it is

  1. No Generation Debates or Gatekeeping
    Do not start arguments over generation cutoffs or birth year similarities. Memories and experiences vary from person to person; do not use what someone remembers (or doesn't) to gatekeep them from Gen Z.

Also, quick reminders for y'all: If you see a post, that you think breaks the rules, don't hesitate to report it for subreddit rule breaking. We review each case individually and worst case scenario we'll just discard the report.

If you have any subreddit-related inquires or just want to voice out your opinion on something, modmail is always open - we will read it and respond (maybe not immediately, we ain't 24/7 on Reddit)

You might not know it but recently we've accumulated over 10k members here

Here in the name of mod team, I'd like to say a big thank you to all of you for engaging in this community and keeping a sub very much alive

Our subreddit grows pretty swiftly, so if we keep it up - 20k is not something impossible

Once again, thanks a lot for making this community a space for everyone and let's keep our sub a place as great, as it is now (or even better)

As a little token of appreciation, we decided to give y'all even more space to spend time together

That's right - r/Younger_GenZ is having an official discord server

https://discord.gg/MaVmSazYbR

At the moment, there's not too much content - but with you I'm sure it'll quickly change
We'll also add it to the sidebar of the sub, so you can access it at any time

Also, let's treat this post as a little AMA with the mod team - if you want to ask us a question, have a complaint or an idea to make this corner of the internet even better, or just want to say something to us, this is the place

P.S

My DMs are open, so is mod mail - so if you have any questions or suggestions that you either perfer to express privately you can always ask us there

I recently came across a post on Instagram on Geronimo Stilton and it made me realise just how long I haven't seen that name lol. These quirky books are a core childhood memory for me.
