I can't remember the last time I said "you're welcome." Just today, I've used "you got it," "sure thing," and, my current favorite, "no worries, friend." I sometimes finish with "have a nice day," "cheers," or a fist bump.

And I'm a Xennial, not a Gen Z, Alpha, or Beta—THOSE kids must really burn your cheese!

I'm almost a boomer, and I love the way language evolves. "Cheers" is often how Brits express gratitude; and "no worries" is mighty similar to the Spanish version of "you're welcome", "no problemo".
