Vagueposting is the act of making unclear or cryptic posts on social media (intentionally or unintentionally), usually hinting at drama, feelings, or events without giving any real details. Think captions like "Can't believe this is happening…" or "Some people really show their true colors," posted with zero context and maximum curiosity-bait.
The term became popular in the early 2020s as people grew increasingly relaxed about social media etiquette. It started with people not caring about spelling or whether what they claim is true; now, many people post reactions to things they already think are in the cultural zeitgeist, or are just too lazy to provide context (would a QRT kill ya?). You will likely see people (often teens and young adults) use the term on Facebook, Twitter (now X), and Instagram, to call out mystery-laden posts.
