I agree the ‘tech-savvy’ phrase has outdone its use. We should use a better phrase, like ‘tech-indoctrinated’ or ‘tablet-fed’ to give a better perspective into these younger kids’ digital lifestyles.
I can see the alphas railing against the term “tablet-fed”. They are NOT gonna like that.
That’s gonna be what us cranky old millennials call them later while we would be yelling at them to get off our lawn. But we won’t yell that, because none of us will own any yards.
I disagree for the term “tablet-fed” as it classifies anyone who used a tablet growing up and not specifically people who stayed within the cushy UX bounds. A lot of the future programmers & tech savvy people are going to have grown up from using tablets. Example, installing mods for minecraft PE when i was ~7 was my first experience actually doing something with tech.
I’m not far enough down the tech rabbithole to use Arch like a lot of people here, but compared to the rest of the population who can’t find powerpoint that’s right infront of their faces I’d be considered tech-savvy to them.

I feel like it does imply that though. “tablet-fed” really does sound more severe than just using it having one around.
