Zoomer for short. Created during Covid-19, this term refers to the generation of kids who had to go to school online due to the pandemic, many of whom were on the videoconferencing platform like Zoom.
This is an additional layer of meaning different to the previous use of the word 'Zoomer' (2018) which stops at identifying people as Generation Z / Millennials.

A play on the term “Boomer” referring to the baby boomer generation. This group of gen Z goers are the coolest kids around who spend the majority of their day on TikTok or playing among us. This term is so perfect because this generation has had to adapt to life online through the platform “Zoom” during quarantine times, in order to not catch the Coronavirus.

I thought Dave was a bit out of touch, but then he started dancing in our online meeting. He's an idea guy, a total Zoomer.
