No, a very tiny number of them were. The vast majority can just about connect to their own wifi assuming the guide was printed and not a QR code.
Gen Z grew up with tech just basically works, and hides all the complicated stuff behind 17 submenus and automatic installs. I know plenty of gen Z who literally don’t know what a file path is.
Millenials and Gen X are the generations who needed to know tech if they wanted to use it. Unlike tech savvy boomers, there’s a lot of them, since computers were consumer products by then. And unlike gen Z, nothing was simple or automatic and there were no guides. You learned how to learn, or you didn’t get to use a PC for anything other than solitaire.
