Your parents sound more like gen x to me, but there are blurred lines between all the generations.
Your comments about tech understanding is almost completely opposite to most other comments, which is my main reason for thinking that. But I know plenty of millennials that are shit with tech too.
My experience in IT is that most of gen z doesn’t care about understanding anything on the Internet outside of social media, and they do excel at social media compared to others but I see fewer and fewer young people interested in how any of it works. They seem to be completely content with consuming media but even most of the big game streamers are millennials it seems like. Gen z seems completely ok with walled gardens and black box services as long as they ‘work’ .

Every generation is like this. Typically, the media of a generation is made by older generations. Much of Boomers music was made by the silent generation. Most of the Millennial pop culture was made by Gen-X and Boomers. I would argue that millennials and gen-z are set apart by how to prevent their own generation is in their own pop culture.
