It's kind of disheartening listening to norms talk about software. Boomers and zoomers are kind of on equal levels when it comes to computer illiteracy. They don't know how to touch type, and they're intimidated by the abstract concepts prevalent in even lay-facing UX design; that's in part due to the superstitions and skeumorphisms (that just aren't logically analogous to the ideas they're intended to represent) promulgated by proprietary hawks like Microsoft who revel in consumer ignorance. It's crazy to think that, in the generation antedating millennials, who wrote with inefficient typewriters and spent money to read books; and in the generation subsequent to millennials, who grew up with unlimited access gratis to media much more stimulating than books that depicted spoken and visual content; millennials are really the only generation for whom, growing up, written word, in its sophistry, to thousands of people was not only a viable alternative to spoken word among those who were in their immediate vicinity, but were much more capable of conveying written word than their generational counterparts. Gen X notwithstanding.
