Sorry, but its different this time. A much smaller chunk of gen z is good with tech, and most of them struggle with basic concepts (like filesystems). Saying this as a gen z person.

It's always "different this time." Every generation.
Spoken as another gen Z person, I know exactly one other gen Z person who's bad with tech. The rest are great with it. It's entirely Dependant on who you surround yourself with.

The older parts are typically better.

older gen z, can confirm! gamers and nerds are generally pretty good, but others not so much

I disagree. I work IT for a living. I fix a lot of devices for gen z but don't often have to educate them on software. the amount of people 30+ who don't realize I as a random IT worker can't magically reset their yahoo password is insane.
