I don't know how you all get calls. I have literally never been called to fix a computer. People prefer to pay some random guy at Walmart who will scam them, instead of calling me and getting free help. And I'm not a troll, not an asshole, or an incel, I'm a regular guy, I'm friendly, but people don't seem to care, they prefer paying for useless help.
Of course my family members call me. It's the only way they get the tech support I used to offer in-house. :D
