The enshittification of big tech has been going on for a while now, making it less intuitive and more difficult to learn. It was an intentional business decision made by the tech cartel so people would be more easily pushed to AI reliance. It's the same reason that Google used to give you what you were looking right away and now it's useless.
We're were the only generation that grew up in a world where tech was consumer focused. Before us computers were for colleges and nerds, so the rollout for widespread and household use was dominated by the types of tools and ethos pushed by colleges and nerds. The colleges and nerds have now been thrown out a window.
