    See this as an opportunity to pick a birthday you really want.

      I wonder if there are spikes at 1980-01-01, 1990-01-01 and 2000-01-01.

        I mean I know 1/1 is a very popular “birthday” for cultures that don’t actually celebrate but people are asked to pick one.

        As far as Steam knows, I’m turning 126 next week.

        As far as I am aware, most people are indeed born on January first.

          Me too. I used to use 1990-01-01, until I noticed that suddenly people from the early 2000s are adults too.

        I’ve been born in 1980 since I was like 12. Might graduate to being born in 1990 or 2000 if someone ever makes me scroll to the year.

      And when Meta eventually locks the account for a dumb reason, recovery probably won’t be possible because the account doesn’t match your real birthday. It’s safe to assume it’s only going to get worse.

      Move away from Meta as soon as possible, ideally to some place that doesn’t collect personal info uncessarily.

    Telling the fake date isn’t working anymore?
