I can't help but feel that a lot of this is deliberate, the end result of decades of dismantling the public education system to further divide kids into the upper class in private schools, religious fundamentalists in home schooling, and everyone else abandoned to keep the population uneducated and in worse economic precarity.
Somebody please tell me that the kids are alright 
god DAMN that one gets me hard, I have had to explain the basic concepts of filesystems (literally just a file can go in a folder, but so can other folders, see? so you have to put the files in the correct folder) to a number of young people in the past year. Young people who are already working on PROGRAMMING courses (I do not work in education).
General computer literacy peaked with xennials, with average boomers and zoomers being equally terrible.
i think i learned like 80% of my computer literacy from modding video games Xd
No it peaked with boomers. In my family the boomers are fine. Then, except for me gen xers and younger dont know a file system from their ass.
And, of the milenials i know only the wierd nerds know how to use a pc. Even in programing class. As in, "man you are suposedley a chemichal engeenier this is your computer dont tell me you dont know wich key is the exponentiation sing?"
This is why all the boomers were into q anon and 4 chan memes. I think it has to do with boomer entitlment, the same thing that makes them go out without a mask and spit in each othets faces, they feel they are the best and invincible and so they give these computer things a try and learn to use them because its not that hard.
You have a weird family and 4chan is mostly millennials
Yeah, like roofer said below, the old guard of 4chan users from the mid-2000s are mostly made up of millenials. I'm right on the border between millenial and zoomer, and I was around 10 in the days of the earliest 4chan memes.

Critical support to Windows for having a slow search so that I had to learn how to use the file directory

I'm a bit of a ludite but the course that I teach uses R so the first few labs is just learning to set a working directory and now more than ever all of these students have clouds that double all their file locations and it's been annoying because I hate clouds and macs and that's all the damn kids use.
This is perfect. One of the faculty I work with is a Dropbox person so this describes my life everytime he asks if I put something in the Dropbox.
