The Antoine Effect:

An internet phenomenon exclusive to the LGBT+ teenager side of GETTR in which a fictional character or person is popularized and idolized, becoming the stock of humor and inside jokes. The name derives from Antoine Leblanc, a fictional character (who also happens to be a DILF) belonging to one of the GETTR users.

Any character going through the Antoine effect will be the butt of jokes and well thought out humor. They may also be sexualized in a joking manner, such as the term “antoinussy” given to Antoine Leblanc. The characters popularity will skyrocket and soon be known throughout most of GETTR.
Oliver: "Hey, Connie, did you hear about that new character my friend drew and posted to GETTR?"

Connie: "Yeah, she seems to be going through The Antoine Effect."
