Boomer in like Facebook/tiktok is their final technology frontier.
My friends/circle (ages 19 - 72): 95% don’t know how to set up Adblock on desktop. 20% only use computers once a week. 5% use shortcuts like copy and paste. 30% of them buy iphones bc they find android too hard too bother with (I agree with this). 1% struggle with basic concepts like knowing if they are posting a status or DMing someone. Tho 10% trade stocks by themselves, so with sufficient motivation they could learn.
I have onboard 1 person irl and I had to walk them through it.
I rate the fediverse as 0/10 for assessibility to boomers but have not tried the whole fediverse
It is early on in this frontier. Lots of things are being developed and settled. Once things settle I am sure there will be an app and aggregator that wins out and has a majority of the zeitgeist and boomers can settle there. The internet during it’s shake up is for quick learners and people who can adapt easily. Inevitably the boomer might not be able to adapt and learn and it is ok for them settle
