This might sound ridiculous but I personally tie the core 2010s to when PewDiePie was the most subscribed YouTuber.
So from late 2013 to mid 2018.

I’d say it ended in summer 2018. I see the core 2010s as 2013-mid 2018, or the 2012-13 through 2017-18 school years. By late 2018, the core 2010s were over. Tiktok was released, early 20s artists like Billie Eillish, Doja Cat, and some others were starting to emerge, gen z had made a name for itself, baggy fashion and some other trends started to emerge and would become popular in the 2020s, airpods were common, and the overall zeitgeist didn’t feel tied to the core 10s anymore. 2018-19 is pure late 10s I totally agree with the endpoint for the core 2010s. The only thing I disagree with is that I don't think the core 2010s started as soon as 2013 hit, despite it being post-apocalypse, let alone early 2013 in general. Yeah, a lot of core 2010s trends were emerging heavily in early 2013 and even late 2012 in some cases but I didn't notice the 2010s being in full effect until I graduated from 5th grade and went into the summer of 2013. I think mid 2013 is a more appropriate start date for the beginning of the core 2010s. 2013-14 was the first core 2010s school year for me.

I would say 2017 is the end of the mid 10s but not core 10s. It still felt like the 10s identity was around its peak then. There's different sides to the 10s politically. Yeah I also think 2017 was the end of the mid 10s. The 2010s was obviously at its peak sometime around 2015-2017. I feel like 2014, while mostly mid 10s, seems too early to be peak, but that's just me. Disagree tbch. In fact, I’m about to throw out a BOLD statement, 2014 is the earliest year that still feels similar to today. I mean, just look at all the bullshit we’re still dealing with. Feminism, Black Lives Matter, Ukraine. ALL OF THAT can be traced back to that fucking year.

Maybe you have a point about air pods though. While it’s true they blew up in 2019, they were starting to get noticed in 2018. Billie Eillish first started gaining traction in late 2018, i remember. She even had a song with Khalid that charted. Doja also had a viral video/song in summer 2018 called “MOO!”

I’m literally not joking when I say this but, in my recommended one time, there was a video about Ukraine and it said “how Ukraine is the West’s fault”, or something like that. I thought because of that, it was a recent video. And it was from 2015. The fact such a video could still be made today is proof that 2014-2015 still has strong ties with today.

Billie Eilish's bad guy and Lil Nas X topped the charts in mid 2019. Blinding lights released later that year which kicked off the throwback pop era. Lizzo debuts. Dua Lipa starts throwback pop in late 2019.

Still, 2014 didn't really have mainstream political division like 2016 did and was still before memes permeated every area of the internet. 7th gen gaming was still normal.

This commercial is from 2014/2015. And there were examples WELL before this.

Also the memes of 2016 are radically different from 2014 and feel connected to today. This was where you started to see images with captions representing things and drake hotline bling memes constantly.

To be fair I wouldn’t say 2014 memes are really connected to today anymore but back in 2017/2018 I would’ve said they still were.

It was a meme that was spammed absolutely and utterly EVERYWHERE from late 2015 or NYD 2016 up until like 2018.

2019 is way too late. IMO, the peak 2010s vibes really ended after Trump won the election. It was obviously still 2010s after that but a VERY different kind from the 2012-2015 2010s that even on here seem to be forgotten, but IMO, I’d say those were the REAL 2010s Those definitely weren't the real 10s and you're just drunk with Nostalgia

The problem is that both halves of the 10s are every iconic
