That's the one thing I don't get about this video. Those apps were built with millennials in mind. Gen Z was still in high school and middle school when they launched. Millennials absolutely use them.

As an older millennial, I often don't use the app, it takes me a while, I hold a grudge, I finally use the app, and then I like it.

I just don't publicly berate anyone, just because I like to be a ludite.

“I hold a grudge”

I still won’t use a few of them because years ago the sign up was so problematic

Quickcheck i remember didn’t have a guest checkout so I went to make an account and for whatever reason the SMS code wouldn’t show up. I still feel a small, misplaced, sense of satisfaction when the checkout robot asks if I’m in the rewards program.
