It is 20s, but not a new decade :)

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decade



You all are correct but no one cares. Numbers ending with 0 is what gets attention. Going back to the year 1 doesn't add much anyway since we are pretty sure that the count of years since the birth of Jesus (whoever he was historically) is off.

Technically, every year is the end of a decade.
