Yeah, we got Chromebooks, with predownloaded stuff on them (hell, our School policy probably PREVENTED us from downloading anything...) or you just used Chrome browser for everything. We definitely weren't allowed to use terminal either. The extensions store was blocked/didn't allow downloads.

Chromebooks aren't built for storage and performance, they're made for the cloud. So anything that you wouldn't encounter on Chrome/Google Drive means they have zero knowledge of it.

I think the last time I remember using tablets was like 2nd grade to do math games. But that could've changed.

You were also punished/heavily discouraged from using personal laptops instead of school issued Chromebooks, cause they wanted to ensure you had no issues completing work and that you weren't cheating on assignments and tests. So students were literally forced to use them.
