    Do I think it’s intentional that smartphones are ‘dumbed down’ compared to PCs, so as to turn them into devices for mindless consumption of corporate-controlled media instead of devices for empowering user freedom? Yes, yes I do.

      then its working very well; i learned this past xmas that my millennial/gen-z&a nephews/nieces are somehow less tech literate than their parents/grandparents.

      my well wishing for this channel was in the hopes of reversing this trend, but maybe it’s too little too late.

      we need superman; not mr. rogers. lol
