I don't blame the kids: the brutalist yet colorful zoomer UI design is much easier to parse for 30 year old seniors than the flat UI/material crap our generation created.
I have no way to defend this argument but my eyes, but I can say that Google's Material design is the most bland, insipid of them all, and I would rather see Bootstrap again than another Material-inspired with its white cards on white background and tap animations. Just kidding, Bootstrap was as bland.
I have heard it referred that way, I didn't use zoomer as a slur.
I can't think of any example off my head, but I remember mention of a striking online clothing store with bold colours, thick black borders and large fonts that's very popular in that age range.
Ah, that is what that design is called? Heh. I've seen it, among other names, also been referred to as "chalkboard design". It also reminds me quite a bit of the style you use when drawing on flipcharts, and actually of 90s web design; the good parts of it, that is. I like the ideas behind it and the clarity, but I think everything tends to be hideously oversized on it.
Commonly called neo-brutalist ui, iirc. The only issue I have (well not only, but main), is that many have really really large text and it's hard to read. For example: gumroad
