    Yeah. What 45 said is technically a true statement… If it was said by a geek or a programmer. With him it’s always surface level.

      But how does it even make sense? I would have said I was 99% confident he used two apps all the time over the years. First, ex-Twitter, and now his own social-network-which-shall-not-be-named.

        I know a few older people who have smartphones, and while they can use things like Twitter or Facebook on the phone, if you told them that you were installing an app, they wouldn’t know what you meant.

        They’re the type of people who were never interested in computers, and used them as appliances, possibly never needing to install things themselves. As they moved to phones, they either get their kids or the shop to set them up.

        They understand using Twitter on the phone, but don’t really understand the concept of how it works.
