A bunch of 2010s franchises ended, plus the debut of Disney Plus at the end of 2019 happened. TikTok and AirPods blew up as well. 2000s nostalgia got bigger. 2019 still leans late 2010s though, but it felt different from 2017 and most of 2018 which was still arguably a part of the core 2010s. I will admit that COVID really slowed the pace of pop culture. By 2023 or 2024, I assume 2020s identity will be more clear. Right now pop culture is still in a transitional state and the 2020s still seem to be finding their identity. Maybe we are in the early 2020s, which could be a transitional era from late 2010s to core 2020s. Yeah pop culture is still barely removed from the 2010s, but I guess that's expected in the early part of a decade. It could be that 2010s culture is dying and that's how the early 2020s will be remembered in the future. Technology, gaming, TV and movies seem like a continuation of the late 2010s. Nothing about the PS5 seems groundbreaking. Music and fashion seems a little different though from 2018, but not as huge the difference between 2008 and 2011. Minimalism is still unfortunately going strong in 2021, which is a 2010s design trend. Maximalism is coming back though. I'd say we are in the same era as we were in say around late 2018-2020, but not 2017-mid 2018 or back. You are right that in 5 months to 1.5 years from now, early 2020s identity will be more clear. Right now it is kind of tricky to identify because we are in the early 2020s. Changes were mentioned before they just add to what could be the identity but aren’t crucial enough to define it just yet. I don’t think it’s because we are numerically early 2020s that we can’t see any differences there just hasn’t been a radical departure let alone real enough departure from the 2010s and no actual 2020s decade identity or entirely foreign cohesive new era aesthetic. Also no new glaringly different culture that was visibly overtaking 10s at any point from 18 to now, when these pop culture chabfe patterns typical happen. 2020-2021 just offers us some more visible and noteworthy changes than 2019 but no shifts. This just wasn’t the case in 1989, 1999, and 2009. You could feel the era almost entirely different by the end of those years the pop culture changes were radical enough. I have clear memories of all of those years Also if anything covid killed off more than a years worth of what may have been pop culture progress in numerous ways ( tech, fashion, new film styles) for obvious reasons, people aren’t going out and consuming as much and not concerned about showing off or upgrading or burning money on entertainment as much since it’s survival mode or looking for a new job, stunting pop culture growth Your last sentence is key to why the early 2020s are the way they are. 2019 set up a 2020 that will never happen because Donald Trump had other plans. Now, we are all stuck in a void and we wait.

cover of Rolling Stone so yes lol in before nightmare says "anybody can be on Rolling Stone, any one can be 1 # on Spotify it does not mean anything " LMAO anybody can be on Rolling Stone, any one can be 1 # on Spotify it does not mean anything It does mean something if someone is on Rolling Stone and does mean something if someone is #1 on Spotify www.bloomberg.com/graphics/pop-star-ranking/2021-october/olivia-rodrigo-was-the-queen-of-summer.html"Olivia Rodrigo was the biggest pop star in the world all summer long. Rodrigo first topped Bloomberg’s Pop Star Power Rankings in May, the same month she dropped her debut album, “Sour.” She remained on top in June, July and now August. Along the way, Rodrigo faced plenty of competition. In the past few months, new popular albums have landed from J. Cole, Lil Baby, Tyler, the Creator, Pop Smoke, The Kid Laroi and Billie Eilish. But to date nothing has enjoyed the staying power of “Sour.” The biggest surprise is that Rodrigo didn’t cede the top spot in August to Eilish, who over the summer released “Happier Than Ever,” the follow-up to her 2019 smash. “Happier Than Ever” was the best-selling album in the U.S. during August, topping the charts for three weeks in a row."

It was clear that by late 2009, we entered the 2010s culturally. Yes COVID really stinted pop culture growth. Things might just be brewing under the surface right now waiting to explode come 2023 or 2024. There’s no way to tell though. I’ve noticed some changes in 2021 that distinguish themselves from 2017-mid 2018, but again not enough to fully remove us from the 2010s. You make great points. Honestly 2022 and maybe 2023 will be the same as 2021. I can see 2024 being a different era from now. Not to mention major networks like MTV and BET rebranded with new logos, so many changes

I think Disney Channel ended in some countries as of October 1st 2021. I also think Fox Movies ended too on that day. Now granted MTV is pretty much dead but still hahha

Now granted MTV is pretty much dead but still hahha It would be funny if MTV signed off lol. I remember they’d host New Years parties and major events like Superbowls in the 2000s, but now they’re a shell of their former selves. The last time I remember channels signing off was 2006. they had one chance to turn it around which was in 2017 when TRL ( it's flagship program ) returned to the network,unfortunately we all know how that turned out lol The closest thing you are going to get are MTV's free music video channels
pluto.tv/en/live-tv/mtv-spankin-new
all of MTV's music video content was moved to Pluto for free

In fact it was doomed from the start. www.theverge.com/2017/10/6/16430796/mtv-trl-reboot-review-dc-young-fly I think MTV's music video content being moved to Pluto happened in 2021.  yupp they messed that up so bad, that was the ONLY way MTV could have turned it around lol It did indeed, watching it right now actually lol, the Spankin New channel is a play on the 2000s tag line that MTV used to show in the corner of the screen when brand new videos came out. I am glad it was resurrected for nostalgia purposes.

I am glad it was resurrected for nostalgia purposes. What a shame about TRL lol. It seems as if MTV botched it badly. That's cool MTV's music videos got resurrected. I say it's right on time because the early 2000s have approached and are approaching 20 years. At least that part of MTV is still around which is a classic and an iconic part of the 2000s. MTV is pretty much on their final leg. In the early 2000s MTV 2 used to play music videos all day long, even had themed countdowns, was a great channel. LITERALLY this channel was the backbone of my teenage mornings along with MTV 1. Ask user Kev on here, he will tell you the EXACT same thing because he watched it as well

Lets get back on topic please.
Anyways, I looked at me and my friends Instagram pics from 2016 and they have a different quality from 2021. They still use those type of filters.
