screenshot, probably from Ex-Twitter but I saw it on NOSTR, showing a guy saying that training a zoomer to use a PC at work is as difficult as training a boomer, with a reply indicating that there is only one generation that can rotate a PDF and that knowledge dies with us

One friend of mine told that he read once that kids these days doesn't even know how to create a folder (or directory), is that true?

This is the only one of these that I simply do not believe I am genz and admittedly more into computers than average but I have never met anyone who couldn't figure out to right click to make a new folder unless they mean that they didn't know how to use the terminal to do it.

I mean... My Mac M1 doesn't allow right-click create a new file. 😮‍💨 ! Also, if I recall correctly, there is a similar thing that made me go crazy on Gnome DE.

Nowadays, people hate to get everything neatly separated in a nice and well ordered directory structure. They throw everything in the same directory and use the find/search function, for what it's worth.

I dislike gnome to an unreasonable extent. I tried using it when I first tried linux and it did not vibe.

Gnome had right click --> new folder, but only if you can select the white space, or you can right click the small empty square in the upper right below the top but above the scroll bar.
