Some have speculated, because of Roblox's reputation as a kid's game, that attendees were children. Players appear on the platform as avatars and their profiles do not list personal details like age, gender, or location. Users on X have noted that younger family members attended the digital protest because safety concerns, lack of access to a car, or inability to drive kept them from in-person activism.

But Roblox's core user base is aging up, which means many participants were also likely in their teens or early twenties. In 2022, an average of 67 million peoplelogged on to Roblox every day and 22 percent of them were between the ages 17 to 24, the platform's fastest-growing demographic.
