I thought hipster was essentially supposed to be someone vapid and style obsessed at any given time. Dandies would have been hipsters by my understanding. It's a focus on appearance and also whatever is a current trend of the times so they might also include interests or hobbies as well, the point is the term is used pejoratively because the interests or the style adopted by these people is considered surface level and inauthentic because it is primarily based upon the recency of widespread adoption of whatever it is.
A focus on appearance and current trends? My brother in Feist, you just described everyone under the age of like 40.
Edit: I guess Wikipedia says "modern hipsters" basically declined/disappeared around 2016-2017, which feels right.
