       As much as I like that computers have gotten a lot more accessible to people, I still wish that people on the whole had gotten more computer literate and tech savvy instead of computing becoming what it is now. Computers making things easier for users often comes with vendor lock-in and things "that just work" all only just working because they're from the same manufacturer.Also people seem pretty incapable of learning new tech and different workflows now which is... frustrating. We used to use raw HTML on our MySpace pages. :blobfoxdizzy:

       @Rusty feels very elitist and ableist, plenty of those "evil tech illiterates" like me use computers/phones as disability aids. are you now saying that people like me shouldn't use tech because we are not literate enough for a nerd's standards?because that's what you sound like."hurrdurr people don't learn new tech!" yeah, guess what, not everyone is running a server or doing coding bullshit. there are so many usecases for computers.i know how to set it up to work with my drawing devices, and that's what i fucking *need*. for you i may still be a tech illiterate, but *i do not need to know same shit as you*i could sit your gatekeepy ass in front of a PC and tell you to finetune a drawing software with a specific tablet model, and fucking laugh at you that you're a tech illiterate for not being able to do what I can do. you wouldn't feel happy no?stop with this bs
