Not just millennials… I’ve been family IT support since the late 80s.

I mean, as a millennial I only missed that by a couple of years. I was already the most computer-literate person in the house when I was 7, in the early '90s.

Were you the only one who knew how to press the input button on the remote to switch devices?

Trick question: back then, we changed to channel 3 and turned on the device hooked up to the RF adapter.

Also, my parents struggle with changing inputs on the remote now. I'm not sure if they regressed in their old age or never knew to begin with, but either is plausible.
