I do meet way more Hufflepuff members now than pretty much any other house these days. Feel like the Gen z fans connect with the fiercely loyal traits and connect with that more nowadays.
That is possible, but I was born twenty years or so before Philosopher's Stone came out, so not sure I qualify as Gen Z :)
But it's also possible that fans of today are annoyed with being attacked for not being hard working, and just being given "participation trophies" when really this generation is getting screwed by the older ones. Which -- ironically -- is pretty much EXACTLY the plot of the books when you think about it :)
