I have! Do it everyday as a program coordinator and you have an incredibly pessimistic view. Is it challenging and do many need continued resources? Yes, but I see seniors learn and embrace new technology as they want/need every day. LA has some amazing digital literacy programs, along with free devices.

I have too. You misunderstood me. I find it to be a worthwhile endeavor. I’m not pessimistic, I’m realistic about the ways in which the deck is stacked against seniors in this department. That’s why my UX work is singularly focused in accessibility. But that’s also why I don’t begrudge an old person for saying enough is enough. And I don’t think that living a lo-fi life should marginalize you.
