It’s helpful to take a few steps back from time to time to reassess where we’re each coming from on our knowledge of tech (or anything) to better communicate.

    People don’t even know what a browser is… Yet if anybody expresses the slightest frustration with Netflix or anything else, the immediate responses hey you just need to set up a Plex server.

    It’s two things wrapped into one.

    First, the assumption is that people know the names of the software that they use.

    The second is that other people who are not techy consider it just fine to spend hours and hours creating a stopgap solution that shouldn’t have to exist in the first place. They don’t.
