Gen-X here. I showed my Gen-Z kid how to build a gaming PC, and then he showed his friend how to do it. So, now, they’re the “IT” guys for the group.
The kid has been sitting in front of a computer since he was four. It occurs to me just now that I didn’t really teach him anything about file management, drives, etc. He learned the same way I did, I suppose. By wanting to, and searching for answers. He was the first one to switch to Linux a couple of years ago. I don’t know his motivation for doing it, but it prompted me to make the switch soon after.
