As a whole MillXennials are the savviest of web users mostly because we're more accustomed to navigating multiple sources- TV, YouTube, Radio, Podcast, Magazines Newspapers, Blogs, decentralized and centralized web

I am one, though geriatric. I think the dividing line web culture are the mid generations, the 69+X and Xennials, the first of the web 1.0 into 2.0 culture frontier.
