Zoomer
Refers to Generation Z, often as a meme/joke. It originated as a play on the term boomer (as in baby boomers) and Generation Z in 2016 according to Merriam Webster. It grew in popularity in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic due to many Generation Z'ers taking classes virtually on Zoom giving the term a new meaning.

Zoomer
American generation, born between 9/11 and the 2008 Bailout. They were raised with technology, so they don't understand concepts such as remembering phone numbers, calculating tips longhand, and the basic P&Qs of social interaction. Also, they were adolescents during the Covid-19 lockdown, so they learned how to optimize their work from behind a computer screen. They struggle to connect with other people in the public, because of their dependence on digital devices. Older generations perceive them as lazy, but in reality, they can accomplish more work with a few keystrokes and mouse-clicks than entitled Millennials and spoiled Baby Boomers could in a day of loitering at an office.
Baby Boomer: That lazy Zoomer is a total dumbass. I can't believe that a person who doesn't wear deodorant or floss his teeth can make more money than me. One day he'll have to learn to do things the old fashioned way in order to have a successful career.
Millennial: Maybe if you Boomers could just friggin die, then we might be able to get decent jobs before the Zoomers force us back into the unemployment line...again.
