For me:
Classic 10s = 2011-2015
Modern 10s = 2016-2020
Specifically, mid 2011 - early 2016 as classic 10s. Mid 2016 - mid 2020 as modern 10s. 2010-2011 could be a transition I guess. late 2015 - mid 2016 is another I guess (not sure if late 2016 could be classic 10s to be honest. Maybe mid 2015 or 2015 in general could be transitional). 2020 as a whole is a transition (especially post-February), but I guess late 2019 is debatable.

I personally do not consider 2020 to be 2010s. COVID was such a massive event it pretty much completely killed the 2000s vibe.
As a whole this is what I’d say
Classic 2010s: 2011-2014
Modern 2010s: 2015-2018

Slider phone era: Late 2009 - Early 2011
Classic 10s: Mid 2011 - NYD 2016
Modern 10s: 2016 - Mid 2019 or March 2020 at a stretch

I still think 2020 was a transition year overall. Late 2019 is the earliest I would warrant said transition.

Mid 2019 is when the transition to early 20s culture really started roaring its engine and the 10s vibe was starting to die out but March 2020 I would say is when early 20s culture overtook late 10s culture.

I personally would end the transitional period with the inauguration of Joe Biden. It’s just that I find 2020 to be more culturally 2020s, and 2019 is sort of a weird limbo year that’s not quite 2010s anymore, but also doesn’t fit into the 2020s. It’s a lot like 2009 and 1989 in that regard, how neither year really fits the zeitgeist of any decade.

Early 20s stuff was starting to take off but you had super 2010s stuff like avengers and game of thrones at the height of their popularity. Instagram was still more popular than tiktok as well.

Thinking about it some more, I'd say the real dividing line between the classic and modern 2010s really boils down to politics and how divisive our world has gotten. I can really say that the transitional period lasted from August 2014, with the Ferguson riots and Gamergate, to January 2017, with Donald Trump becoming president, and the shutdown of Vine. IMO, I'd say 2017 is unquestionably the quintessential modern 2010s year. This is the year of divisiveness and chaos. It had the largest single-day protest in history (which was against Trump), the largest mass shooting in US shooting, and the start of the MeToo movement. This year also saw the release of the Nintendo Switch, which saw Nintendo exiting their slump which they had been in since the Wii U, and entering a new renaissance. As for the classic 2010s, 2012 or 2013 could go either way. Both were years that have Minecraft, Tumblr, Facebook, and hipsters. 2012 is the first year that I consider to have zero 2000s influences (unlike 2010 and to a lesser extent 2011). So basically, this is how I see it: Transitional between modern 2000s and classic 2010s: Late 2008 - Mid 2011 Pure classic 2010s: Late 2011 - Early 2014 Transitional between classic and modern 2010s: Mid 2014 - Late 2016 Modern 2010s: Early 2017 - Late 2019 Transitional between modern 2010s and classic 2020s: Early 2020 -  ? It's possible we may fully be in the classic 2020s by now, but we don't really know for sure. We may still be transitioning between modern 2010s and classic 2020s culture.

It already felt like the modern 10s by NYD 2016 for me. When memes were everywhere and politics became divisive and talked about more.

Politics were already becoming divisive starting in mid 2014 with what I mentioned, hence why I consider it part of the transition. Main reason I don't consider 2016 pure modern 2010s is because the Switch wasn't out yet, Trump wasn't president yet, and things still didn't become as vitriolic as they would become in 2017. That said, I'd say by late 2016, with the Trump election, Vine announcing its shutdown, and YouTube beginning demonetization of content creators, we were definitely more in the modern 2010s than the classic 2010s.

To each our own then. I knew gamergate was a thing in 2014 but it didn't feel like political tensions had really gotten toxic yet but starting from mid-late 2015 it just turned into shit flinging contests between conservatives and SJWs. I would say the trump election/inauguration is what brought us from the mid to late 10s but i still feel like the entirety of 2016 felt like the modern 10s.

I'm not sure if the 50/50 transition is over yet or not. I think it most likely is though. However, I'm leaning towards 2018 being the quintessential modern 10's year. 2013 for classic 10's.

I disagree at least in terms of actual events that happened. The first half felt darker than 2017, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt with the second half. 2018-19' felt a lot more light-hearted, a lot like 2016-17', despite the election craziness.

I would say 2017 is the quintessential modern 10s year. 2018 has a teeny little bit of an overlap with early 20s culture although it's like 90% 10s.
