Something I've found building a 'retro internet service' is the absolute culture gap with younger people (early 20's) They find the project interesting but then get anxious asking "okay but what can I contribute". Like they need to "hustle" or "prove their worth to be here" I have to explain to them "do things that make you happy. Build things that bring you joy" The internet they grew up on is so *transactional* that it's just how they've come to expect it. That it wants something "of them"
