> Online bridge needs visible rewards for success. BBO is out of the 90s, but presuming we get something modern eventually, give me custom board skins! Let me have a penguin for an avatar. Give me a special hat for winning a certain tournament. Young folks engage with cosmetic rewards, and they don't have to be predatory! Fortunately that's not always the case with young people, I mean, this avatar-mania thing. Bridge is not anime- or otaku-adjacent. Back to the subject at hand, and taking into consideration that I've never ever played bridge (but some of the people from my uni used to play back in the day, including one dorm roommate), I feel like the OP wants to change the entire culture of the game being played around his/her/their parts of the world (I think it's the Valley) only on account of him/her/they being younger. That's not how it works, there are moments in life when you have to adapt to the existing culture, not the other way round.
