Hate to break it to you but people born in 2006 are turning 18 this year (and are technically considered "adults").

I don't really know, but when they have weird illogical views that they defend with trump like arguments, I think they are kids. They might not be 10.

Some people's bodies continue to grow well after their brain stopped developing.

Yes, but it's a little worse than that. One might take that to mean environmental, congenital, or even genetic factors. But there's more. Consider the role that trauma has to play here as it can directly cause arrested psychological development:

Specifically in games: constantly repeating the flavor of the month insults. Typically some influencer comes up with a funny insult then for the rest of the month some kids use that one singular insult for every situation

"Redditors of Reddit, how do you sexily sex the sex out of sexy sex???"

Serious response: you can't really make a very general rule. There are a lot of people who write quite maturely since their teens, and a lot of people who are morons since their teens and have endless dedication and determination to remain in that state for as long as they breathe.

When someone asks what’s a dead give away someone is a kid, it tells me they’re not old enough to remember the ASL days.

The neat thing about anonymous discussion on the Internet is that it doesn't matter. What you have to say is all that matters.

I don't know anything about anyone and that's great.

When they start calling people "jr" or implying anyone who disagrees with them is too young to understand.

Generally when people bring up some personal detail, my immediate reaction is to assume the opposite. Especially if it begins with "as a." For example: "as a woman," this person is a man. "As a black person," this is the whitest person you will ever meet. "As a 60 year old," definitely ten.
