Apart from that, Google also shared that interest between "Milennial" and "Gen Z" were searched endlessly this year. "This year, Google also saw search interest between 'Millennial' and 'Gen Z' go neck and neck. "Interest in 'Gen Z' reaching an all-time high and surpassing 'Millennial' in March. So we decided to give the people what they want and looked at some of the trending Gen Z-related searches . The top trending Gen Z related search was for “Gen Z fashion," the tech giant said.
