most yes, some no. Some are fucking geniuses

also, my blame is 1000% on the schools. They lock down computers so much the button to make a FOLDER was disabled... in highschool

There was a short while when everyone had computers at home, and we became skilled with them because we grew up with them. But those computers were pretty quickly replaced with tablets and phones, leaving the majority of younger generations with much less computer experience.

Because of the locked-down nature and simplified UI design of mobile platforms, they weren't able to learn skills like navigating file systems or the many tools in document and art programs they would have found on PC.

Rather than being an edutainment tool, mobile devices have offered cheap dopamine hits and predatory monetization. The fact that we know this and do nothing to correct it is incredibly sad.
