Preach! I have to imagine many of these folks must be much older and just never figured out how to google. they’re used to calling their kids or something for help on anything. at least that what it feels like.
Or so young that they never had to learn anything other than natural language queries, perhaps. “Into to X” or “basics of X” vs “How do I take photos of a kids baseball game in the evening when the skies are cloudy?”
Was recently at a social media training - part of my work - where they claimed that young people no longer use Google to find information, they use Tik Tok. Not sure if true, but if so, might explain some of it.
“what do the rings on my lens do?”
“how come I can’t use my brand X lens on my brand y camera? I got a good deal on it?”
"how do I get the film out?
“what focal length should I start out with?”
“how come all my pictures are dark?” (didn’t even bother to understand exposure)
Like, come on, youtube has hundreds of hours of videos to help get you started - there’s 20+ years of forum posts

I think it’s correct based in what I’ve seen also
