I think it is now thanks to how devices and operating systems have evolved. But growing up in the era where internet and home computers were relatively ubiquitous, but clunky and slow, meant that most Gen Y were pretty good with them IMO.
That may have been true 20 years ago, but it’s not necessarily true now. Young millennials had unbridled access to the internet. Most of us grew up using desktop PC and knew their intricacies for the most part. Hell, we had to use CSS and HTML for MySpace.
The current generation has always had relatively limited access to the internet, and most have used it off of phones or tablets their whole lives.
It’s a spectrum in most cases anyway. The average person in any generation is computer illiterate.

Making it harder for users to install any program of their choice only adds fuel to the fire. Banning something on the internet adds oxidizer. Thanks to my stupid govenment of militant pensioners, I learned English to an extent enough for writing this comment and how to use tor.

Probably because standards of literacy change. Same happend with electricity.
It should be the parents’ job to regulate what kind of content their children consume on the internet, not the government’s.
Parents aren’t generally capable of that, I’ve learned.
That’s good because children are much smarter than government and their parents when it comes to internet.
I work with kids and that’s much less true than you would think lmao.

Who you work as? Maybe sampling bias.
Who I work as? If only being a child was a profession lmao
Go easy, English isn’t their first language.
