With 2019 being the last fully late 10s year and 2021 being the first fully early 20s year. I think so, not only is it an election year but the other obvious reason and the protests.
Not only this, but I think in the future 2019 - 2021 will be looked at as one of the largest differences between a two year gap.

A pandemic and a new president. What's not transitional about that?
Also, don't forget new consoles like PS5 and Xbox X.

Pandemic just froze A lot of mid 2019 to early 2020 and stunted a lot more potential of what could have been this year, while a few things slightly faded from 2018-2019 but not that much to mark a serious difference Biden effect won’t be felt until next year. Gaming won’t be make its mark until next year I’m guessing we’ll notice and feel a proper change at some close to mid 2021 or a bit earlier or later.

Pandemic aside, 2020 is a Late 2010s cultural year in everything but name only. We've been in the one cultural era since Late 2016.

Pandemic aside, 2020 is a Late 2010s cultural year in everything but name only. We've been in the one cultural era since Late 2016. Yeah I think this era started In mid to late 2015 pop culturally.I don’t think Trump being elected made much of difference and the more I think about it most things in late 2016 were not enough of marker alone or foreign to the world of 2015-2016, you could feel that late 2016 vibe in spring 2016 and even late 2015 to some extent. I think the second half of 2015 marked the end of the first wave of mid 2010s and was transitioning after. Outside of early to mid 2017 solidifying some changes and offering a few different things, I think late 2018-2019 as the second proper minor shift, just on basis of a significantly less amount of flashier mid 2010s holdovers and 2016-2017 culture and hot topics loosing steam, and feeling just slightly more separated, even if it’s not too much, especially most of 2019. Then again it’s fair to say it’s within the same universe. Modern era: Summer/Fall of 2015 to the start of 2017: Transitional phase Spring of 2017 to Summer 2018 : Identity solidified Late 2018 - 2019 : Pure Late 2010s Rest of 2019 to present: Just more fading and stagnantion + COVID later on with new president and some hints of a new era.

A lot of 2010s issues r prevalent & relevant in 2020. 2020 has so much lingering late 2010s culture. Early 2020s culture could peak by as early as spring 2021 or as late as fall 2021. 2021 will be more 2020s than 2010s. Yeah. I would say it is the still the late 2010s just in the very last phase of it. I don't even know what 2020s pop culture really is yet and it definitely didn't feel 2020s in late 2019 or anytime in 2020 either to me.

Back to the topic, I think fashion is slowly heading towards 2020s territory. Many girls are wearing Y2K inspired outfits. I feel like you're gonna see this type of fashion more in 2021 and evolve from their on.
Also, many boys are sporting perms and curly fringes.

We need preppy curtained hair, starter jackets, 90s Afros and jncos jeans to make a serious mainstream comeback first. im all for change. Hopefully it evolves a little more.

How did a thread about 2020 become about the transition from early 2010's to mid 2010's? wtf?
To keep on topic, COVID isn't going to last the whole decade, neither is this sedentary lifestyle that is being forced in major countries due to companies and schools wanting to work from home so I don't think so.

2020 is a weird year culturally cause it’s obviously transitional in terms of life and politics, but music-wise it’s literally identical to 2018. Like can we at least get a change in music by now?

Yeah, it’s not as exciting as the 90s-00s and 00s-10s transition since pop culture is at a halt right now.

I would say it’s the least exciting pop culture year compared to any recent era or year you didn’t like, then again it probably ranks lower. Literally barely anything pop culturally happened this year. Barely anything outside of Biden and a console launch. Actually 2018 and 2019 are miles ahead of 2020, practically gold in comparison.

I think Twitter blew up in 2010. I remember people in my middle school saying they opened a Twitter account. Touch screens were already established before 2012/13, it's just that you've been seeing more people adopting touch screen devices. I first heard of Instagram around spring 2012 and never really opened one until summer 2013. That seems about right. You’re right that 2012/2013 is when touch screen technology adoption was noticeable or hard 2 ignore. I’ve heard of Instagram in winter 2012/2013 during my freshman year in high school when I was 14 years old. I haven’t opened 1 until mid-late spring 2019 towards the end of my 3rd year of college @ almost 21 years old. Yeah I’m late 2 the party. Yeah you could sense they became more commonplace than earlier, also touch technology was starting to used more often in stores and kiosks from what I recall around that time. Instagram is overrated anyways.

Instagram is overrated anyways. Instagram was cool before but I'm started to think it's going to decline in the next couple of years. They turned an artsy hipster app into a consumerist shopping mall. Reels is also a flop. One way in which 2020 might be considered transitional in the future.
