I’ve always heard this a lot recently and searched it up myself out of curiosity. It’s true that Gen Z is less computer savy than Millennials. I’m one of the older members of Gen Z (2000) and throughout my livelihood computers played a big part of my life from typing book reports to playing games on Newgrounds. However, stories I’ve heard are shocking. People around my age struggling to grasp with basic things like knowing how to structure an e-mail, struggling with Microsoft word, PowerPoint, Excel, let alone TYPE, and etc…I’m not going to lie on this sub-topic however, I’m terms of coding, yes I have no clue how to do but I wouldn’t consider that a “basic skill” imo (Pls don’t attack me lol). I even heard it’s going to get worse for Gen Alpha because schools are getting rid of computer classes. I’ve tried defending Gen Z on this topic before, now I just feel to ask people who are seeing this problem.
