Oh, exactly 100% this, yes.

The people who want others to become better computer users are hypocrites.

They accept a metric-shit-tonne of conveniences in their own lives, other people doing things for them, but when it comes to computers they think they have the right to withhold skills and demand better proficiency.

These people aren't hunting or cooking their own food, growing their own textiles to make their own clothes, building their own cars or tools...they stand uplifted on a mountain of other people's skills and labour and think they get to look down on others asking for software and computers to be easy to use.

We teach people to drive cars because you don't kill someone using a computer inexpertly.

  @Uraael @ageha @coolboymew @koimoa @mischievoustomato @weeble ok this is getting kind of heated discussion? that wasn't my intent. I am just frustrated that I can't have a good tool because it was redesigned so someone else can refuse to learn anything at all and do some things with it. I'm not mad at that person I am frustrated at the people making the thing.

This is a great conversation and I'm enjoying it. Sorry if I'm coming across in any way hostile.
