• And yet it’s the first time that it crossed my mind. Trust me, tech illiterates such as me struggle more with these things that you might believe.

    Also thank you, you don’t know how much of a help you are giving me pointers. I know it might seem obvious on your end, but it really isn’t if you aren’t as internet savvy.

      Bruh - a key reason why you are tech illiterate is simply because you’re telling yourself you are. There are only two skills needed to become tech literate: (1) the ability to read, which you seem to have; and (2) the ability to accept that you don’t know something, while remaining persistent with asking questions. Though it may be true of the present moment, consistently telling yourself you are tech illiterate and not Internet savvy is reinforcing those beliefs and hindering the ability described in (2).
