Imagine having Windows installed in 2024. /s
Most people are tech illiterate. Ask them anything but to use a pre installed system or pop in a CD that was given to them (No they can't burn one themselves) and they'll fail
No, that's ChromeOS. Windows still assumes some knowledge that you may take for granted, but someone who's never used a computer before might not know.
Not gonna lie I have no fucking clue what ChromeOS is
It's the OS on Chromebooks
Not gonna lie I didn't know Chromebooks were a thing up until now, let alone ever assume they'd have their own OS.
thank you
I'm a little surprised considering their aggressive as campaigns, the fact they've existed for over 10 years and that their market share is higher than the mac's
It's called not keeping up with technology in general since a decade แ( แ )แ
Seriously when I tell people I'm tech illiterate I mean it. I can't tell ya what all the different devices mean and I got introduced to Linux because I once had to recover data from my broken Windows computer 5-6 years ago and my pal gave me a disk. That was Ubuntu of all things too!
I'm basically an old grandma lmaoo
Fair enough, I guess you're the first tech illiterate I meet on such a niche social media as Lemmy
I really only go where my friends drag me to. Same pal who introduced me to Linux, introduced me to Lemmy
