Definitions by Emotional Cruiser
-craft
A suffix that indicates a Minecraft-like game, first appearing when numerous knock-offs began to imitate the original Minecraft gameplay. It signifies games that involve building, crafting, and exploration in a blocky, voxel-based environment.
After playing a few "-craft" games, I realized they just can't capture the magic of the original Minecraft.

APK
An acronym for "Android Package Kit", commonly mistaken as a short form for "application." It refers to the file format used to distribute and install applications on Android devices.
I downloaded the APK for that new game, but I had to enable installations from unknown sources to get it working.

FewTube
Having its logo (and favicon) being a green play button, FewTube is a kind of YouTube being redesigned to be less addictive. First of all, FewTube channel subscription have 5 priority levels like emails, i.e. very important, quite important, fairly important, fairly unimportant, and very unimportant. In addition to that, FewTube has no "Shorts" feature and its homepage feed is replaced by a search box to discourage mindless browsing. Furthermore, FewTube search results can be tuned based on filters like priority (especially if you only search videos from subscribed channels) sort by newest / most relevant, and whether or not to personalize search results based on liked videos and / or watch history.
I switched to FewTube to cut down on distractions; now I can actually find what I want to watch without getting lost in an endless feed!

videonundation
Videonundation (short for "video inundation") is a phenomenon where your YouTube homepage is inundated by endless video recommendations due to subscribing to insanely large numbers of YouTube channels (at least 600 channels), hence there are many channels who upload new videos to YouTube at the same time.
After I hit 700 channel subscriptions, my YouTube homepage turned into a videonundation—there's just no way I can keep up with all these new videos!

amishing
Being a term similar to the Indonesian slang term "ngebaduy", this term "amishing" refers to the occurrence where a group of people deliberately choose to go AFK from the modern world and "wean" from modern technology (e.g. electricity, smartphone). Please note that the suffix "-ing" is similar to the Indonesian prefix "nge-", which turns a noun into a verb.
After a week of amishing in the woods, we felt rejuvenated and more connected to nature without our smartphones.

not for sale
If something is not for sale, then it's something that you're dying to have, but not sold at any grocery store. It's akin to extra screen time allotment that you start to deserve once you subscribe to 600+ YouTube channels, but it's something you cannot easily obtain from your parents.
That new gaming console is definitely not for sale; I’ve tried everything to convince my parents, but they just won’t budge!

butt typing
A term similar to "butt dialing" that refers to the phenomenon where a virtual keyboard on a touch smartphone is accidentally touched, hence rendering a random strings of letters (and characters).
I just pulled my phone out of my pocket and found a text full of gibberish—classic case of butt typing!
