Just curious as to what is the average age here. I'm 27 myself.

I didn't join the fediverse to have my data harvested.
And it's just a best practice to never reveal personal details online.
It's even better to lie once in a while. Bonus: lie about the same thing multiple times with conflicting details. My online presence in other spaces mention both a wife and boyfriend back-to-back lol
Do you actually have your Lemmy account set up in a way that knowing your age would actually provide any amount of useful data to anyone?
Not at the moment.
But as an account ages, you might leak more and more info about yourself, (e.g. IP addresses, interests based on what you post about, etc). If you then add on a personal detail like age, someone with bad intentions might be able to narrow down who you might be.
Physically: 38.
Mentally: 12.
you were made for the internet

I turned 42 last year and will turn 42 again in 3 years, finally reaching the ultimate answer.
Tail end of 58.
old enough to remember that the format is a/s/l
19/f/Cali was my go to answer for that, even when I was 15 in the middle of nowhere in Alberta.

For an apricot, I'm old. For a head of lettuce, even more so. For a mountain, I have not even begun in years. For a man, I am just right.
37? I don't think I've had my 38th yet. it's actually slightly difficult to remember my age at this point
I celebrated six decades in this planet last Wednesday.
age is a construct
Time is a figment of your imagination, lunchtime doubly so. (as is age)
