My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We’re in our early 40s.

    i think everyone can learn how to use new tech, its more a question if you still want to.

    For example i dont feel the need to get into tiktok…but if tiktok existed 15 years ago i would have.

    Here are still old people using CLI text based browsers on a dialup connettion who never felt the need to upgrade to a more visual way to browse the web…even if they could learn it.

    At a certain age u just stop giving fucks about new things maybe.

      Depends on the personality of the person.

      I knew someone born in 1905 who was excited by personal computers and happily using email into her 100s.
