How to watch TikTok and that's all?
I'm just kidding, maybe at least gen Z and below would know how to operate Windows.
Ha! No. If it ain't got touch and an app, gen A don't even understand why we bother.
Really? Maybe I’m in an echo chamber. I heard that elementary schoolers these days use computers in class, so I thought they’ll learn basic computer skills there.
The problem is that computers are now too friendly. You don't need to learn the deep magic anymore to run them.
My kids, who can't even read, navigate their tablets like professional users.
Touchscreen Chromebooks, and they sometimes struggle with those.
They do. I've got an 8 year old, and they use computers in school. My nieces and nephews are around the same age in different schools, and they use computers too.
There are some schools with older kids where they get school issued Chromebooks, but generally, at least here, kids are using computers.
Most over 50 that don't use a computer for work are the same.
Growing up I would have never imagined the next generation would be less computer literate than me.
