meatspacer
Meatspacer is a colloquial term used to describe an individual who exhibits a lower level of comfort and proficiency when it comes to working, collaborating, or interacting in the digital world. The term is derived from the concept of the physical or "meat" space, contrasting it with the virtual or digital realm.
Meatspacers typically prefer and may feel more at ease engaging in face-to-face interactions and traditional, offline methods of communication and collaboration. They may demonstrate limited familiarity with various digital technologies, online platforms, and social media tools, often preferring to rely on more conventional means of communication, such as phone calls, in-person meetings, or written correspondence.
This preference for the physical world over the digital one might be rooted in various factors, including generational differences, limited exposure to technology, or personal preferences. Meatspacers might find the fast-paced and ever-evolving nature of the digital environment overwhelming, leading them to lean towards more familiar and predictable methods of communication and interaction.

Deriving from cyberpunk novels, meatspace is the world outside of the 'net-- that is to say, the real world, where you do things with your body rather than with your keyboard. William Gibson's novels (Neuromancer, Mona Lisa Overdrive, and Count Zero in particular) note the difference between the 'Net of the console cowboys and the world of the meat outside.
