Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?

My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We're in our early 40s.

I agree with people here saying that younger people are just not very computer literate anymore. I bought my daughter a starter desktop computer so she would get more computer literate, but it sits on a desk while she uses her iPad. The schools have Chromebooks, which is the push-here-dummy of operating systems, especially when the school restricts it. Apps on phones and tablets just work. There’s no learning curve.

Unless they’re specifically interested in computers, they don’t need to be computer literate anymore.

That said, I think future technology will reflect this. They won’t need to be for most jobs.

Give her a surgerical operating system like Linux, not Windows, certainly not something Apple based
Why? She doesn’t care. It doesn’t interest her.
Ah, okay. I didn’t read that part. Maybe it will interest her later on because of Linux? Idk, do as you like
