Nah, the zoomers are IMO the second generation to grow up with the internet. Sure it’s even more present for them and gen alpha, but I’d argue us millennials are the ones who first really grew up with the net. While we weren’t on the net all the time back then, we were the generation that grew up with the net as it became what it is today, for better or for worse.
Yeah I’m 28 and was consuming memes in middle school. I was not aware at any point where the default solution to a question was anything other than to look it up on the internet when you get home. I quit Facebook in high school.
But not a massive social media presence, not a massive streaming presence, little to no influencers. We didn’t grow up online like kids today, even if we played some Runescape on dial-up.

Grew up with it, but weren’t raised by it.
I say I grew up online. I was a gamer/geek, and there was a massive gaming social presence online in the 90s.

But it certainly wasn’t the internet listed there at least not until the very tail-end of “growing up”.
