I may have expressed myself poorly, what I meant is that their interesting and quality reporting quickly became rarer among the huge amount of articles like the one you posted. I guess that they tried to go for the click baity route of odd content to get more views, a route that is full of competition and has a hard time retaining recurrent readers. I would've preferred they stuck with building a (definitely more expensive) niche of journalism in the spirit they were initially founded.

What does making breakfast with someone's vagina have to do with a specific generation, the youngest members of which were already working or in college when that particular article came out, and the oldest members of which were raising their own adolescents? Why does everything weird and alternative still automatically get labeled as "millenial" stuff?

  The comments here really make you lose faith in our ability to communicate as a society. So many comments about Vice having become "too left"/"not moderate" where I'm uncertain with the examples where the line is between the writer expecting something super right as moderate or if I myself am way left. Otherwise ok comments arbitrary grouping and sigmatizing people. I think we've almost reached a complete breakdown in our ability to communicate with each other, at least in written form.

I am a millennial. Please don't cater this to me in any way, shape or form.

If you read or watched Vice News cca. 2014-2018, there was indeed plenty of high quality journalism. What’s that article got to do with it? And why do you think it caters to millenials specifically?
