For me personally it works good, i have no major problem with it now. And to
create a new post is not that hard, i think most will manage it they try.
But what the problem is not you and me or the older generation. It's the
younger generation that today is used with things like facebook, instagram, disqus,
reddit, where everything is simplistic, easy to understand, modern looking and
a minimal learning curve.

Don't underestimate the talents of young people.
I have a nephew and niece who are too young to join this website and can find
their way around Facebook and the like better than I can (probably partly because
it interests them more than it does me) but they can also very quickly understand
and add value in old technology discussions too. I would say overall it is easier
for the young minds to understand and engage with us than it is for many older
people to adapt to new technology.
Or course there is a balance to be struck somewhere along the line. My parents
could never program a video recorder but the current young generation have both
iPods and vinyl.
