While you are 100% right that it's internet basics 101 and computer basics 101, you have to keep in mind that the younger generation have no idea about any of this, because they've grown up in a mobile device focused, app based world. There's young adults out there who have only ever used phones or tablets, and never touched an actual computer in their lives, and that number is only going to grow as the years go on. Siri or Alexa does their googling for them, they don't do it themselves. It's been years of people going into computer courses in colleges and universities and having no idea what a file directory is. On top of that, forums as a whole is really ancient tech, nobody uses them anymore except for very niche corners like ours. Closest thing resembling a forum nowadays is reddit, which none of the kids use cause it's for old people. Most things nowadays are just on discord servers, which is absolutely the WRONG platform for a forum, but devs and game communities insist on using them anyways because it's newer. In a similar vein, I, for example, have no fucking clue about swipe shortcuts for shit on my phone, because I'm a dinosaur who is used to the computer days before mobile devices, but I'm sure the kids know all that shit and would scoff at my lack of knowledge.
