I blame whoever gave public school kids tablets and chrome books instead of sending them to computer labs. Now all of society is paying because we only taught one generation of people how to use Windows.
Those kids are barely starting to graduate highschool or are only a few years out of it. It doesn't do any good blaming today's cs interns and juniors when Microsoft products have been shit for decades
“Those kids” have already graduated college and are in the workforce. Computer labs got removed from my local schools in the early 2010’s, which was a literal decade ago. The middle schoolers (at the time when the computer labs were removed) have bachelors degrees now.
Ugh, what can you do on a tablet other than art or some flavor or business bureaucracy. The mouse and keyboard is the most efficient way to accurately convey information into a machine, and we intentionally failed to teach young people how to even type. I am sorry but if you type faster on your phone than you do a desktop / laptop you don't know how to type.
