In other words, the general population likes to be used by companies and really don't give a shit as long as they can watch videos.

Not quite.
If users see thry need to invest more brain power in tech than plugging a cable in and pressing the power button, they will either give up or ask tech literate folk. They are like an extreme toddler with tech.
You wouldn't expect a toddler to write a speech

No but I would expect a toddler to learn new things.

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not all wants to learn more (sadly)

[–] uranibaba@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I can understand the viewpoint, learning something new requires time to be invested, time that one may want to spend on something else.
