▲ 152 ▼ What skills did almost everybody have 50 years ago, but few people have today? (slrpnk.net) submitted 7 months ago by SolarBoy@slrpnk.net to c/asklemmy@lemmy.world 239 comments fedilink hide all child comments I suppose it would be mostly practical skills, cooking, fixing things. Usually had to be done by people themselves. Maybe also mental things like navigating (with or without paper map) and remembering their daily and weekly agendas. What other things would be a big difference with the people today?
