It’s the final word digital bragging rights battle — which generation witnessed essentially the most tech changes of their lifetime?

A viral Threads post from @iblamekaixin lit the fuse on July 31, racking up over 353,000 views and nearly 30,000 likes: “THERE’S A GENERATION THAT WITNESSED THE WORLD GO FROM NO INTERNET, TO BUYING THEIR FIRST COMPUTERS, TO USING FLIP PHONES, TO ADOPTING THE IPHONE, AND NOW, EXPERIENCING THE RISE OF AI. THAT’S CRAZY.”

Cue the generational cage match.

“It’s called GenX,” snarked one user.

But Gen Z wasn’t letting that slide. “…it’s Gen Z. majority of Gen Z too. gen z wasn’t born yesterday like older people think,” fired back one other.

Boomers had their receipts — and their reasons to be cranky. “And we now have needed to reassemble our music collections half a dozen times. No wonder us Baby Boomers get so cranky nowadays,” an older person fired back.

Others turned nostalgic. “We watched the world go from analog to digital in real-time,” a further commenter wrote. “From burning CDs to streaming all the pieces on demand. From landlines to smartphones that replaced 10 different devices.”

Some are even rewinding. “And I’m now reversing all of it. Going back to flip phone, CDs within the automotive, eliminating social media and entertainment apps, and regulating my nervous system,” declared another person. 

Experts say millennials might need the strongest case for the crown.

“What’s unique about this generation’s relationship with technology is that they didn’t grow up with the expectation that each interaction can be mediated by a screen—and yet they’ve grow to be deeply fluent in it. That fluency is each a bridge and a burden,” Elika Dadsetan, executive director of VISIONS, Inc., told Newsweek in a recent interview. 

Gen X, Gen Z, and Boomers all threw shade, each claiming their very own tech grind deserves top bragging rights.

Christina Muller, an elder millennial and licensed workplace mental health strategist, agreed, telling the outlet, “We’re the one generation to have straddled each an analogue and advanced technology world.” Unlike Gen Z, she said, there was no digital map — only constant pivoting.

Millennials, Muller noted, “know the joys of laughing with friends more often than typing ‘haha’ on our devices.”

And as one commenter reminded everyone: “The height irony is that it’s the identical generation that grew up with all apocalyptic sci-fi movies where humanity gets controlled by artificial intelligence and robot.”

From cassette tapes to ChatGPT, the generational scoreboard may never be settled — but not less than everyone can agree on one thing: no person misses the sound of dial-up.

And speaking of things that make older generations clutch their pearls, Gen Z’s latest workplace stunt has the web in a full-blown comment war.

As previously reported by The Post, Gen Z has already built a rap sheet of office crimes — mumbling into phone calls, showing up dressed for laundry day — but one intern just raised the bar.

A young hire at an AI startup told their boss they were taking a vacation because their “energy felt off,” in response to a viral Reddit post from the stunned supervisor, who even shared the last-minute email for proof.

Supporters hailed the blunt message as peak Gen Z confidence and a step toward healthier work-life boundaries, while critics slammed it as unprofessional and entitled, warning such moves could sink future job prospects.

The dustup reflects a broader generational clash over workplace norms, with Zoomers unapologetically prioritizing well-being — even when it ruffles corporate feathers.

whether you’re Team Flip Phone or Team AI, one thing’s clear — the tech wars aren’t over, and neither is the battle for office etiquette.
