I hadn’t thought about it until reading your comment here but I accidentally raised my GenZ kids this way. If I hadn’t done this I never would have seen my eldest heading down the misogynist edgelord path and intervened.
The only decent computer in the house was in the living room, and they had clunky retired elementary school computers in their rooms running Linux and Open Office so they could work on homework (no internet, USB drive to save homework and send from family computer). It wasn’t because I sought to keep them from using the internet privately, it was because we couldn’t really afford better.
