I think a computer is much more complex for many than a mobile device, most will prefer to use the simple mobile phone than a computer.

I think it's less about simplicity and more about affordability/necessity.
mobile phones come with phone numbers - still a a requirement in order to seek employment/access government resources in the US.
also, most mobile phone plans in the US have subsidies for purchasing phones - so people are getting them on credit.

"A desktop computer is too complicated" is something I had previously only expected a boomer to say. I think that's just silly. It makes much more sense to think that most people just don't need a desktop computer.
If you don't play PC games (consoles fill that), you aren't using office software (schools and offices would need that), you aren't editing videos (built in video editors for the website you're posting to are good enough sometimes) you know all you're doing is visiting social media and other websites or more commonly download a website with additional spyware capabilities (social media apps), well is phone (aka the pocket computer) fits in your pocket, you can take it to bed with you, take it to the couch with you they even got devices to display your phone onto a TV you know, why get a desktop PC?

Absolutely right, I've been using desktop computers since I was 8 years old and I love them, I can't live without one, the mobile phone stresses me out by not being able to do all the things I can do on a computer, mainly the ease of doing many tasks at the same time, that on mobile devices is much more complex or difficult, in short, people have become very lazy, they don't want to learn, and a computer is too much for them, better, computers for us, "the nerds"
