I've noticed this too.

Attention spans have shrunk all across society. But it seems worse with the younger folks because they don't remember that it wasn't always like this. I don't think they are affected to a greater degree. It just doesn't seem to occur to them that resisting it might be a worthwhile effort.




I don’t think it’s an attention span issue.

In my mind we’ve regressed and returned to asking the invited to keep track of where and when, when there was a brief decade where an app did it for you.
