Honestly, phone users ruined a generation of computing.
None of this shit was an issue when there was a barrier to entry to using the internet.
Blame tech companies, not users
I'll blame both.
The users are willfully ignorant.
Man, the mental gymnastics you people go through just to argue with others on the internet is insane.
Cultural problems require cultural solutions.
Holding people accountable for their contributions to the problem.
Encouraging them to make better decisions to mitigate, and eventually reverse the damage that has been done.
I'm going to ignore you now because you're just going to keep pretending not to understand what's being said because you don't like what's being said.
I see it all the time whenever someone's consumerism is threatened. Peace.
And not wanting to learn to do basic things on a computer made companies put everything on rails and then once everything was on rails, they could just take control away from you. I don't know how many times working in an office people would be completely ignorant of how to use their computer and be completely fine with it. Like this is your career and your livelihood and the tool that you use daily to get the job done. Learn how to use it and not just the steps to "point and click at certain things" and when it doesn't do exactly what you want you give up.
