Bored Panda reached out to redditor Subject_Thorn, who started this discussion online, and kindly agreed to answer a few of our questions. Naturally, we were curious to know what inspired him to take this question to Reddit.

He told us, “I was actually in a nostalgic mood that night, so my mind was wandering. I work in an office in an adjacent IT role, so we use the Windows file system in various ways daily for our tasks, and last week I was reading about how kids today don't even know what File Explorer is because of the oversimplification of technology, primarily on smartphones and tablets.

Kids today could never know that you can actually manually change video game files to adjust the game experience, nor how to actually do it. It's made me sure that to teach my future children technology properly, they will need to be exposed to a computer before, or at least around the same time, they are able to use a phone.”

If he were to answer the question himself, he would say that something the 2020s kids will never experience is not being able to connect with other people instantly and lacking a stable or accessible internet connection.

Our interviewee shares, “I remember when I was little and I had just picked up Counter-Strike to play with friends from school, and we needed to install Steam to do it. In the process of that, we found that you can actually talk to other people on Steam! It was crazy that I could type on a chatbox, press enter, and they would see it a few moments later! It was like magic.”

He adds, “When I was young and we visited with my cousins, we would find YouTube videos we thought were cool to watch and some flash games like Stick Fight, and we would open several Internet Explorer windows and let them load so we could check them out later. We did this the moment we woke up, around 8 or 9, and the videos and games had only loaded by the evening!! And we would NOT turn the computer off or the windows with the media on them, so we could access them through our vacation without having to re-download them again. This is not a problem anymore in the developed world.”

Having said all this, the redditor doesn’t think that childhood was better back then compared to now. “I don't believe in the "good old days" sentiment. Kids now will experience different things than my generation did, and they will be similarly nostalgic about their unique experiences the same way I am. And their kids similarly after them, and so on.”

As kids we played video games but we also got outdoors. Sometimes finding areas of forest to go and investigate. We enjoyed checking out odd areas people generally would never go into such as those little wooded areas in between roads. Our parents didn't care as long we gave them an idea of what we were doing ahead of time in case we got lost or hurt.

We would have a small fire just enough to roast some marshmallows and then put it out and usually make it back in time for supper.

"Life Without Smartphones": 30 Things Today's Kids Will Never Get To Experience Being disconnected.

There were periods of my life growing up, hours or even days at a time, where there was genuinely no way to reach me or my parents. In the 90’s, growing up, most people didn’t have cellphones. They existed but they were *really* expensive. I remember when my mom got her first cellphone. She always turned it off when she got home and stuck it in a drawer. Why would she need a cellphone at home?

We had the internet but it was slow and we had limited access to it, often on a family computer visible to everyone and maybe for an hour or two.

And if you go back a little further than that, answering machines were expensive and uncommon so you either reached someone or you didn’t. There was no constant demand from everyone for everyone.

I definitely remember calling a friend to hang out, their parent answering, and telling me they were already hanging out with someone else. “Okay, cool, I’ll try again later.”

I had no way to reach them. Which meant they got to be fully present with whoever they were with and weren’t talking to me or anyone else while they were with that friend.

That level of disconnect is something that, in hindsight, I really miss. You were wherever you were with whomever you were with and that was it. People took hours to reach and that was normal and, I think, a really good thing.

It's depressing that you are immediately greeted with a "look what everyone else is doing that you are not" message just because you tap on one app. It's nice to have quick and easy communication with our loved ones. It's horrible that we are immediately reachable by our bosses just as quickly. Sometimes it's how you use the technology that makes it what it is.

There is always a post about kids these days not understanding the great experience us adults had as kids because they are always online or have their nose buried in their phones. But lets place blame where it should go, not the kids but the adults who they have mimicked who also have their noses in to their phones. Who bought the kid their phone, computer, gaming console and didnt set any limits, an adult in their life. While I still love my 80s and 90s music that is about it. How would this list be possible for all of us to comment on if it wasnt for the internet. If you dont like it take their electronics away send them outside or pull out a puzzle. If you feel really nostalgic close the windows and smoke a cigarette with them in the same room (j/k dont do that), but do it before you go on Amazon and order something you dont need or hope on social media for the 50th time today to tell the world what you are making for dinner.

If you are a 90s kid, you are still a child.
