I think it’s fair to say that those in their late teens now are the first generation raised online. Sure, previous generations where raised alongside the internet, but the current generation is raised with a much larger presence of the internet.
Nah, the zoomers are IMO the second generation to grow up with the internet. Sure it’s even more present for them and gen alpha, but I’d argue us millennials are the ones who first really grew up with the net. While we weren’t on the net all the time back then, we were the generation that grew up with the net as it became what it is today, for better or for worse.
But not a massive social media presence, not a massive streaming presence, little to no influencers. We didn’t grow up online like kids today, even if we played some Runescape on dial-up.

Grew up with it, but weren’t raised by it.
I say I grew up online. I was a gamer/geek, and there was a massive gaming social presence online in the 90s.
