You know the meaning depends on context, right?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 years ago
Yes. And you’re getting the context wrong, which is what everyone is telling you.

Nope. The 20th century is recent enough that the 1900s refers to a specific decade, and OP clearly couldn’t have been referring to the entire century anyway since video games didn’t exist for the majority of it.

So you think they were referring to video games made between 1900 and 1910?
