Boomers and certainly gen X/older milenials are probably more into tinkering and getting it working…it guides for zoomers with their point and click tablet/ipad interface or SaaS that need guides.
As a youth of the late 80s I know bbs, forums, etc
I would not include boomers but I get what your saying. Gen z isn’t a monolith though and neither is Gen x. Some people are techies and won’t have a problem figuring out the fediverse. Non techie “normies” will probably get confused and write it off unless it becomes more accessible. Good thing apps are coming!
lol. Babyboomers and Gen X invented and built the internet. We programmed VCR’s and could navigate dial-up settings for v90modems. Maybe write a guide for gen Z, as anything more complex than a swipe is too much technology for them XD
I feel there’s more nuance to this and this is an inaccurate and disingenuous generalisation.
A very small portion of baby boomers and gen x were involved in this compared to the masses who simply exist as sheep.
The “enlightened” ones are a minority in every generation from what I can see.
I also feel this whole my generation > your generation is just another mechanism of segregation. Instead let us bring forth our collective knowledge of setting VCR times and laugh about getting to the last floppy/stiffy disk in a set and finding corruption because… magnets.
It really is just Gen Z. Millenials were programming shit and bashing everything together with hardware and software adaptors as kids. Gen Z grew up in the world of the slick interface that just works.
Oh, it’s about to get far worse for reddit in short order.
I suspect that we will be seeing some very beloved third party apps that just got bullied out of reddit, available for lemmy very soon.
What the fuck is spez going to do, when he now has to compete against the look and feel of apps that make his app look like dogs shit? He can’t boot them from reddit again.
These 3P app developers have millions in their audience. Millions of people who’d love nothing more than to open that app as usual on July 1st and just keep doing the same thing they did the day before.

Bro get people from reddit to use Lemmy. Create guides for boomers so that they know how to register and navigate lemmy

Heck, genXers are the only generation who can set the clock on a VCR. A skill now lost to time and technology.

The Sync app author has confirmed they’re working on a Threadiverse app, and I suspect we’ll get at least one more from the reddit 3PA authors.
There are also some nice ones shaping up from other developers already too.
My opinion is that without proper moderation tools, the best mods will leave or just quit moderating. Slowly the site eats itself when that happens.
Hopefully a rif replacement is coming
Would they change the acronym to rwf for reddit was fun or lif for the obvious?
Kif for kbin and the meme of this post has gone full circle
Slide for reddit is working on Lemmy support as well!
Slide has unparalleled customizability imo. Definitely my favorite.
