I agree. 2011 was peak and quintessential early 2010s. 2011-2012 was the last time late 2000s influences lingered. It felt closer to 2010-2011 than 2012-2013. 2012-2013 was when late 2000s influences were dead. The transition from early 2010s to mid 2010s began and we were in the core 2010s by Q4 2012-2013. I remember the fashion changed and hipster became more noticeable. Plus smartphones, tablets and touch screen technology became necessities instead of luxuries. Instagram and Twitter blew up in 2012-2013. You’re right that 2012-2013 was the start of modern culture. Heck we’re still influenced by that time period now in 2021. But touchscreens were already becoming a necessity in 2011-2012. Twitter blew up in 2010 and Instagram blew up in early 2012. Hipster fashion was becoming noticeable in 2011-2012. Modern culture today dates all the way back to the mid 2000s. I still don't get how people think 2012-2013 was a big change when all of that was slowly building up in 2011-2012, even 2010-2011 for that matter. Thank you. I don’t know who decided everything started in 2012-2013 or 2013-2014 when everything was gradual and mostly established in 2009-2012. We need to stop treating the 2010s like the 90s, where years reflected a much a much faster rate of change

I believe the real change was in 2013-2014 when the iPhone changed it's look and the new consoles released in November 2013, it felt like we were in a brand new era. The 2012-2013 school year had some changes but it still felt very similar to 2010-2011 and 2011-2012. What about Netflix releasing its original series? Suddenly decades of domination by primetime television on mainstream media was swept away by streaming in a short amount of years. That being said, while despite the changes of 2013 cannot be understated, living life in 2013 is obviously much closer to 2011 than 2019.

Damn, I always seem to forget about the Netflix originals in early 2013 lol. That being said, I believe the plethora new changes were just beginning in early 2013 instead of late 2012 but the entire early 2010s in general were already building up to those changes anyway.

Yeah, the mid 2010s feel very split. Part 1(Fall 2013 - mid 2015) felt very bubblegum and carefree while part 2(Summer 2015 - Fall 2016) had a tropical vibe but also very dark and minimal.

I feel like it’s mid to late 2013 to early 2015. Spring 2015 felt almost identical to the summer almost a mix.Late 2016/Jan 2017 felt 85 percent identical to spring 2015 to August 2016.

I was there too. I never said touchscreen wasn’t becoming popular in 2010-2011 or 2011-2012. It was gaining steam. I don’t think touchscreen blew up until 2012-2013. I noticed all that more in 2012-2013. In 2012-2013, those aspects became more “in your face” compared to earlier. I’m not saying 2012-2013 was a drastic change from 2011-2012. I’m saying that 2012-2013 was the start of the core 2010s and the transition from early to mid 2010s. The early 2010s peaked in 2010-2011 and 2011-2012, but it no longer peaked by 2012-2013. Early 2010s culture became watered down, stale, long in the tooth or burnt out by 2012-2013. I even said that 2012 leaned early 2010s and 2013 leaned mid 2010s. Yeah, I would say it's more ubiquitous in 2012-2013. The transition between the early and mid 2010s was kinda blurry and no clear lines to know when it exactly started. Like I said, modern culture can be traced back to the mid 2000s. We are still watching Youtube as it was in 2006 and we are still taking selfies as it was in MySpace in 2005. Pretty much. I don’t know whose idea it was that everything just changed in 2008 or 2013-2014 it’s not the way it happen for sure. 2005-2006 already set up like half of late 2000s culture.
