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

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!

Normie millennial here, can't wait for an app!

Boomer here. I'm enjoying having to figure out how the Fediverse works, it's refreshing. It's the difference between putting a ready meal in the microwave, and cooking a delicious casserole from scratch. Yes it takes longer and you might have to look stuff up, but it's totally worth it. (My first computer was extra fancy, it had two floppy disk drives, so you could save a file without having to take the program disk out. Also the screen was amber, not green. So cool.)
