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.

Poorly. But that’s because of One Drive. You can disable and uninstall it though.
How YouTube revanced works
YT revanced isn’t an “app mod”, its a completely separate program which just shows YouTube content. Kinda like how Lemmy sometimes shows reddit or Twitter content.

That’s straight up untrue. Your claim is so confidently stated and yet so wrong I’m wondering whether a LLM wrote it. To install YT revanced you literally gotta pick an original YouTube apk file for the revanced manager to patch, and then select which mods you wanna apply to it. It really is an “app mod.” Sure, you might end up with two YT apps in your app drawer if you haven’t disabled or uninstalled the stock one, but fundamentally they’re just two copies of the same app but one’s modded.

Wtf are you even talking about??? Revanced pulls directly from YouTube’s site, it’s not like the content is copied over or externally linked???
Yeah. I think this is a pretty good point you are making there! Zoomers may not understand the tech language we grew up with, but in turn, we don’t understand the tech language they have grown up with either. It’s kinda like slang. It evolves over time and makes communication between generations awkward haha.
I think, for me, I feel uncomfortable relying so much on the tech doing a lot of the work for me. There is a loss of control in a sense even though it may make life more convenient in some areas (and not in others). It’s kinda like having to use a dishwasher for the first time and not really understanding how to operate it and then washing dishes by hand still, because that’s what you’re comfortable with.
