I agree, seems like largely a boomer trend (my uncle is still pretty good with the fraz approaching 70). Disc golf is growing I think though. I’ve probably had greater peaks of fun just playing catch in the sun, but golf does give you goals, progression, and something to do alone (as well as lots of different disc designs to think about/buy).

I think of frisbee as being at its peak in maybe the 70s and 80s although organized ultimate frisbee probably came in later in the cycle and maybe was fairly common even after the peak for casual recreation.

You should give it a go!
You can get an Innova starter set for around $20 at your local sporting goods store, and those 3 discs can/will last you a long, long time. Once you buy your first non-starter set disc, you may become addicted to buying discs you'll never throw, haha.
