We, the millennials are the most tech-savvy generation because we were not born with the modern technology but we were able to have a childhood before it hit us. But when it did, in our very early teens, we got really into it and learnt a lot. We learnt the internet, the mobile phone, online games, PHP, websites, JavaScript, CSS, online forums... you name it. We invented this sh... :) But Gen-Z, and now Gen-A even more, were born into the technology, so they never had to learn it besides as users. So they have no clue how thing work. All they know is how to push a button. So in a way, they are crippled by the comfort they were brought into from the get-go. They were never forced to build their own computer nor figure out issue with the operating system, let alone how to program something, etc... So with each new generation, the technological literacy falls off the cliff more and more. It is not their fault, their circumstances are simply different. | ||||||||

I kinda agree, but I'm not sure. When I got into webdev, hotlinking google fonts was already a thing. I did this once or twice and then wondered how to host the file myself. One google search to get the css for it and I was done. No lifetime experience needed, just one internet search. If you are building your own website, you are googling everything already |
