Why do teens use noob slang on social media?

My child used noob slang in a comment online, and I’m not sure if it’s appropriate. Is it just a casual term for beginners, or does it sometimes carry a negative tone?
 
Teens use “noob” slang on social media to describe someone who is new or inexperienced at something, especially in gaming. It comes from online games and is often used playfully to tease friends, though it can sometimes be used in a mean way. Overall, it’s just part of internet culture and casual teen humor.
