have been different?

Just imagine instead of 1983-1986 it was 1993-1996.

Kids gathered around playing SNES or Genesis
Arcade scenes probably around Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, TMNT
Tons of alternative rock and grunge music
Techno/trance driven soundtrack instead of synthwave
TV clips of Clinton speaking
Flannel EVERYWHERE
Bill Nye VHS tapes
Green/orange oozing slime instead of the darker toned 80s version
Tons of cinematographic references to stuff like Jurassic Park, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, Twister, Men In Black,

The main thing about Stranger Things is that it has to happen in the 80s. The fear of the unknown was rampant in the 80s which pushed for more dubious experiments and projects.

The limiting of tech contributes to the show and provides ambiance.

Would be interesting if the supposed spin off they are doing tackles another time period.

The moral panic around D&D probably wouldnt have been part of the storyline.

They'd be able to incorporate a lot of even older pop culture too because every 90s kid grew up watching Nick at Nite almost religiously

I dont see how they can jump forward 5 years given the events of the finale. It wouldnt make sense. Of course, given the size of 11s boobs in the finale, I also dont see how they can act like its only been a few months.

This. There's now a literal miles-wide hellgate open in the middle of Hawkins spewing evil lightning into the sky, and it's heavily implied that one of the main characters now has her soul trapped by Vecna. Pretty implausible for everyone involved to just say 'guess we'll go train / relax for a few years and get around to sorting this out when we feel like it.'

Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read.

the actors have aged sufficiently that they'd have to resolve that off screen.

You also forgot about a certain bedridden person.

Yeah I'd buy the time jump theory a lot more if it hadn't ended with such an urgent event.
