I think it has more to do with age and experience than generational labels. Kis who "were just born yesterday" or "are still wet behind the ears" have always been, and always will be gullible. Everyone needs to be fooled a few times before they "wise up". We need to stop all generational finger pointing and bigotry.
I've got several of these installed and I keep finding myself using liftoff. It's not perfect, but it let's me combine my subscriptions from several accounts into one view. I like that a lot & don't see that option in the other apps.

Off topic: I'm old & out of the loop. Is this a new meaning for "give slack"? It seems opposite of what my understanding. To me it means giving leeway, or latitude, or freedom. To give someone slack was to give some freedom or forgiveness. A metaphor of lengthening a dog's leash.
