Can't blame a generation that wasn't raised on computers as well as you can't blame a generation that was raised by algothrims. I'm a millennial too, one of the older ones, and I have felt my tech literacy decay over the past ten years as the cancer that is silicon valley has spread and dominated the internet. It is to the point that I feel so trapped when I try to do anything online that becoming passive feels like the only choice if you play their game.
I have the benefit of remembering what the internet used to be like and what it still has the potential to be in the future, but the youths of today never experienced that. To them the internet is a feeding machine that encourages nay grooms them into becoming passive consumers. I can't blame someone who literally never got the chance to learn because some tech bro scumbags in America decided that they should abuse their power to turn people into addicts.
Shit, I'm millennial software developer who self hosts software as a hobby and I feel tech literacy decay.
I don't understand how Microsoft office handles it's saves, so I don't want to save shit in the cloud. I don't want an app for my toaster. I don't understand how cool things like YouTube revanced and other "app mods" work, and I can barely grasp what "debrid" streams are. A zoomer manages the discord server we started years and years ago, because none of the millennials know how to work the bots. I self host one of the bots, but I don't know shit about using it lmao.

can't really blame a generation that wasn't raised on computers
No. I'm tired of giving them this excuse. Computers have been common place in the workplace for like 2 decades at this point. That's plenty of time to learn what a monitor is or what a power button looks like or the fact that computers need to be plugged in to work.
This is also not a defense of Gen Z but I'm a little more forgiving because they were too young to really have to deal with the annoying parts of computers.
