It's not gatekeeping, but a frustration about a new generation coming to an obvious conclusion, that they already had.

Why do people get frustrated about that? Someone is experiencing something for the first time, it's the circle of life.

I'm in my mid 30s and my wife bought a record player during the revival of records last decade. Do you think older generations than me found that frustrating? Personally I think it's fascinating to watch technology go full circle generation by generation

Interesting discussion to have witnessed as an outsider.

Is an article written for a a writers expression or a readers enjoyment. (Both?)

I dont think they where frustrated with the writers enjoyment but rather disappointed that the article was a first discovery opinion rather then a veterans rediscovery from a modern point of view which would have been more useful to reflect their own opinion and thus be more personally entertaining. The negativity goed inwards perceiving it as a waste of their time.

Great analysis, you're got it spot on there. It's frustration from learning nothing new from something they thought would be interesting. That probably all boils down to bad the title of the article not being descriptive enough.
