What do you think you're the last of?

I think my wife and I might be one of the last couples to be embarrassed enough about meeting on the Internet to lie about it. When we talk about how we met around our niblings, we always have to explain that "we met on the Internet back when that was something you lied to your friends about"
Niblings. There's a word I've never heard before. I'm guessing it means niece or nephew. I like it.

Yeah, my wife found it somewhere online a while back. Not having kids ourselves, we end up talking about our niblings a lot but we always felt like the phrase "nieces and nephews" was a bit cumbersome in conversion so, it filled a need for us. I keep hearing it from people that have no connection to us so it seems like we're not the only ones who've latched onto in recent years.

I am probably the last of the group of people that were some of the early adopters of the internet. The internet didn't fully become public and more accessible until 1994, I didn't start using the internet until 1996. I am nearing 30 years old on the internet by next year. People from my group, we've seen it all by this point.
We've seen the internet at it's infancy, as it developed, the explosion of it's usage, the dot com bubble burst, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Flash's death and the ongoing enshittification of the internet today as we know it.
Family line. I did want kids for a while, but lacking a willing partner, and seeing the state of the world, that isn't happening.

My familial line. Sorry nerds, the buck stops here. I'm not gonna force anyone else into this hellscape against their will. If I ever adopt, they can keep their familial names.
Posted the same thing and saw your answer. Great minds, eh?

As they stated it became accessible to the average person in 1996. Prior to that you would be lucky if their was a local ISP offering access to the internet.
I worked at several engineering companies in 1991 onward, and even though we had high end systems and tech back then we didn't get Internet and email until 1996. And initially it was useless because your clients didn't all have email yet.peers very confusedly from fredmail

I'm probably one of the last people who still uses Paint Tool Sai 1 to draw. Every other artist I know who used to use it has since either moved on to Clip Studio Paint, Procreate, or Paint Tool Sai 2 haha.
