The first thing I ever touched was a Windows XP desktop, then Windows 7 laptop, then win8.
Then I got my first phone.
Curious about what kids these days have?
iPads? Phones?
Do kids just get used to a corporation being able to control what software they can install?
Because I feel like kids these days will get their first device and its either a phone or tablet and (regardless if its iOS or Android, sideloading restrictions begin in Android starting 2027 btw) are gonna get used to the cage that corporate has build and never venture out for freedom.
So this is it? Humans will get used to corporate digital cages?
Agreed. No screens for toddlers. Screen time, specifically for videos, just does something awful to their brain. Kids can use screen time for age appropriate games, though they get more benefits from other types of games and electronic devices.
With that said, every child is different, and some will learn so much about a computer put in front of them. They’ll be curious and figure out directories, then go browsing through system files, then delete system32 and get yelled at a bunch, then a few days later after the parents fix it learn about the system settings and go tinkering in there, etc. Those kids are fucking brilliant.
