Remember… for most young people now, the internet isn’t even something you access through a browser - it’s a series of apps, some of which have replaced the majority of text with icons to avoid multi-language headaches.
I occasionally read debates at what age children should get smartphones or other devices. While I don’t have children yet nor plans to have any, I think my attitude would be: when they’re able to read and write and occasionally unsupervised, they get a GNU/Linux smartphone, with Plasma Mobile or similar, so they can use the Internet through a web browser and get used to that being normal.
They get an Android phone in their teen years when they need it for banking apps or similar.
It sure seems that way.
