    Sorry, but its different this time. A much smaller chunk of gen z is good with tech, and most of them struggle with basic concepts (like filesystems). Saying this as a gen z person.

      It’s always “different this time.” Every generation.
      Spoken as another gen Z person, I know exactly one other gen Z person who’s bad with tech. The rest are great with it. It’s entirely Dependant on who you surround yourself with.

      I disagree. I work IT for a living. I fix a lot of devices for gen z but don’t often have to educate them on software. the amount of people 30+ who don’t realize I as a random IT worker can’t magically reset their yahoo password is insane.
