I think vast majority of my friends wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between “browser”,“search engine” and just “Google”. Yes, it seems weird but TBH does it really matter? They can use internet just fine.
It’s not a problem day-to-day but when I’m helping someone troubleshoot and they don’t understand that their browser and search engine are separate things it can be frustrating.
True. This is one of the reasons why I only help people with their computers using remote desktop now. I’m so done with doing this verbally over the phone.
probably gonna have the first generation of people who know and understand less about the technology in their very hand than the people who came before them.
Gonna be funny as shit in another 20+ years when the memes shift to tech-inept children asking mom and dad how to do frustratingly basic tasks like print a page or save a file.
