Specifically thinking of stuff that make your life better in the long run but all kinds of answers are welcome!

I’ve recently learnt about lifetraps and it’s made a huge positive impact on how I view myself and my relationships

      That article is completely accurate, I see pretty much everybody save their documents on the desktop but if I were to make them find it in the file explorer they wouldn’t have a clue where it is. With macbook users they just use the search feature and probably haven’t seen a directory in all their lives.

      The people at my school call all laptops “chromebooks” or “macbooks” and only do their stuff using the Google web apps (docs, sheets, slides, forms, etc). As a degoogled and pretty savvy individual it kind of hurts my soul as I’m over here using stuff like libreoffice on my Linux machine.

        Yep, that’s precisly my experience from uni as well. And it wouldn’t be a problem if this “alternative mental model” worked for the people applying it. But it doesn’t. They keep losing stuff, working on 5 different copies of an essay, not keeping track which one is current; they just add workload to everyone collaborating and then someone has to handle this shit. And who does it? The techy “nerds”, such as you or me. The iPhone, iCloud and Google Drive really fucked the people who will have to at some point work professionally with GenZs (speaking this as Gen Z myself)
