There are TWO generations between Boomers and Zoomers.
It's funny how Bs and Zs kind of horseshoe into being ignorant about how computers work. Boomers never had them growing up, while Zoomers were born with phones in their hands using corporate apps and never learned how computers actually work. Those of us in between had to learn how they worked to use them.
Like birds and New Zealand, gen x doesn’t exist online.
It's easy to forget us because we'll just say "whatever" when you do.
I'm partial to "meh."
I mean, I know millennials who don't own a computer. Just phones. They got young kids. Not sure if those are alpha at this point or whatever, but how are they supposed to learn it if they got nowhere to practice?
Quite a few working class kids and teens grow up like this.
