> gen z's weird nostalgia for things they never grew up Plenty of older Gen Z grew up with iPods - the iPod touch didn't show up till they were 10 years old, and it took the smartphone another ~5 years to fully kill off that whole product category. | ||

>the iPod touch didn't show up till they were 10 years old, In America. My country, and 90% of the world, was noticeably behind, and "mp3 players" reigned. | ||

yeah, I grew up on my dad’s old iPod and BlackBerry up until high school; a lot of people in my peer group also were exposed to “older” tech by way of parents, siblings, etc. | ||
