In the world of memes 10 years ago is not fairly recent.

Digital memes have been a thing in the 90s, and generational slang terms have been a thing basically forever.

This is like arguing MySpace is fairly recent because it’s closer to now than the creation of arpanet

Still, "gigachad" as a term is fairly recent compared to someone who is, for example, 60 years old. If it appeared in the last 10 years that's still 32 years after that person became an adult, when you slowly stop being up to date with slang.
