    No special skill…
    I know lots of people that A. Have no idea what model phone they got and B. It would at the very least take 10 min to guide them to where they can find it. Saying “all the information needed is available at a forum” would in itself be a step too complicated.

      Yeah but the bar for that skill is gradually lowering, just ask the old timers, it used to be hard to tie knots, hell some young guys can only barely just tie their own laces lol

        My SO can’t even tie their own shoes… absolutely embarrassing. And they are an educated person who is teaching students in university.

        I think some skills we take as trivial others just never bothered putting the time to master sue to a cost benefit analysis.

        There are just so many things in the world.
