I think it's a fallacy to presume this is generational. Thirty years ago, the previous generation of grumpy old farts had basically the same class of remarks to make about us, and our preferences, since a great many of one's peers were practically glued to that TV screen. Social media is designed to weaponise our dopamine/reward pathways; if you're a holdout against that, fine, but so are a ton of twentysomethings. My assessment is that responses to attention capture stimuli are individual, not generational, and the observable variations have more to do with technological change, than cultural or anthropological change.

More generally, making value judgements on the basis of media consumption is something to let go of, in my experience.
