YouTubers are already doing this, sometimes with otherwordly
click-bait like "let's replace the Web with Gemini" or something
along those lines.

"Gemini Is What The WebShould Have Been" is quite good (but not what I thought about when Italked about "outreach to real people", specially when he launchesAgate, and of course the surrounding environment of his video is notmade for Mr Smith).

"The Modern Web IsBloated, Use Gemini Instead!" is more questionable for instance whenit says there is no search engine but it does the job, althoughprobably not what an outreach Web site would do.

One of the issues with outreach is that you don't talk the same topeople who just want to browse the geminispace and people who want topublish content.
