    Sounds more like a computer education deficiency problem. I actually think that regardless of which OS a person uses, learning the difference between source code and executables, and getting some practice building software from source is something that should be incorporated into elementary school.

    Basic commandline skills too. And I’m not even good at doing things in a terminal.

      One hundred and ten percent right. But it’s not something that’s going to go away any time soon, and the older generations will never get over as a whole, so it’s something that we just have to account for when talking about the average user. The average American reads at, what, a 7th grade reading level? And 50% of people are below average.
