All I'm learning from this thread is that no one can tell any consistent signs.

Schrödinger’s Thread - there’s an equal chance you’re either a child or a bear until proven otherwise.

Extensive use of emojis and abbreviations is a good indicator.

Excessive swearing, as if they just learned how to say “fuck”.

Not that any damn amount of fucking swearing means they are are a young fucker, but you can fucking tell when you read that shit and they manage nine goddamn swear words in one fucking sentence you know they’re a young bitch who aren’t allowed to swear any other damn time.

Crypto bros who follow ultra distorted stoicism (the only good philosophy is the ones made when slavery was normalised) that believe everyone else is unaware of what very basic knowledge they world they just learned that day.

Quick to call other people kids as an insult.

Writing in short form where a lengthier reply would work better and when confronted with such a reply some form of "not reading all that" or other thought terminating clichés.

I've found that as arbitrary as it is - the ability to read a lot of information works pretty well as a mark of mental maturity. Also links to Twitter or Tiktok as discussion points. No one over the age of 19 browses TikTok lol.

When they start calling people "jr" or implying anyone who disagrees with them is too young to understand.

Not sure if it's the case anymore, but strong opinions were matched with EQUALLY STRONG STYLISTIC CHOICE!!!!!!!, often coupled with poor grammar/spelling, and a tendency to lean more towards rehashing the same opinion rather than making a rational argument for it.

I dunno, I get this as much from old people too. I think it's less an indicator of age and more an indication of people who aren't great at thinking.

Probably just internet slang and the skull emoji. That and poor grammar are (possible) indicators.

They’re the ones who are not obsessing over children’s toys or saying “adulting is difficult!”.

This one has been easy for me lately: They spell 'lose' as 'loose'.

[-] boogetyboo@aussie.zone 16 points 4 months ago

I know far too many people in their 40s who do this.

The way I try to reinforce the difference with people is this mnemonic device:

You don't want a loose noose - or you might lose the extra 'o'.

Unfaltering loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party

"Arguing" by listing a long list of fallacies that they don't really even understand.

Fallacy fallacy!
