Mate I'm a millennial and I had my photos developed at the chemists. You're thinking of gen z.
You're thinking of young gen z. I am gen z and as a kid I also had some of my photos developed.
I believe they are name gen alpha or some other greek letter.
Gen alpha surely. But also the younger gen z I would think. Afaik gen z starts around the end of the 90s
I don't know for genZ people but I use my last disposable camera in 2010. Althought, I must be honest I had stop to use them for more almost two years in favor of the more common digital camera.
I think I last used a disposable one in 2008 when I was 6. I have an analog one now but was fully digital inbetween.
There was a brief surge in the 10s where disposable film cameras were given out as party favors at weddings.
Edit: Meant to comment on a comment further down.
Generation Omega.
I can't wait to see how Gen Delta turns out.
Either way, I think we can agree that millennials know what film is. Many of us have even developed it ourselves. You know back when people were thought things other than app development and learned helplessness.
Seriously, I remember taking a disposable camera with me on our school trip Washington. I also remember that it was during that trip that we all found out you could open those things up and turn them into mini tasers.
