Hey gee, has any of you have any experience with technologically illiterate older folks?
What's the easiest foolproof way for them not to fuck up every time?
E.g. convert a Youtube link to .mp3

Phone a tech savvy talkative and set up screen sharing.
Those shoulders.
They cant follow anything that takes more than 3 steps, so keep it simple.
Idk, I'm getting my dad an iPad hopefully he can work it. You pretty much have to write step by step for dummies type instructions and if anything goes wrong it's BOY GET OVER HERE AND FIX THIS *wrong name of product goes here* FOR ME WILL YA

Real actual foolproof method works everytime: Tell them they have to pay for your services, your time isn't free.

Use analogies. If it's a mechanic, use cars for the analogy. If they cook, use cooking. It's not that hard when you compare it with something they're familiar with.

Can relate. For example when they come in to my work and they want to replace their laptop with a new one when an SSD will be just as good. I make the analogy that they have a big V8 engine and the hard drive is basically bike tyres and it can't put the power down. Gets em on side every time.

3 steps + PRINT out instructions with screenshots.
These idiots can't even read a screen, they have to have a physical paper copy to read

If they want to get music just get them a Deezer/Spotify/Amazon account and cut out the shit.
