Nvm is a short way of saying never mind.

Yeah it's okay I barely knew the slang either.
Me: Hey can I share your textbook?
Her: Sure
Me: Oh nvm I found smby else

Tone Indicators 

A very useful thing. Some people might find it cringe, but tone indicators are seriously useful for anyone who finds it hard to understand the true meaning or implications in someone's texts, especially someone you don't know well. I would go so far as to say it's an evolution in our way of communicating online. They should really be used more often by people who naturally text in a cold and dry manner.
Scenario π˜„π—Άπ˜π—΅π—Όπ˜‚π˜ tone indicators involved:

Person 1: Hey wanna play minecraft together?
Person 2: ok
Person 1: ??
Person 2: what
Person 1: Is that like a genuine ok or a sarcastic one or...
Person 2: I just meant ok
Person 1: Ohh, gotcha. Sorry my brain kinda interpreted it like you thought I was bothering youπŸ˜…

Scenario π˜„π—Άπ˜π—΅ tone indicators involved:

Person 1: Hey wanna play minecraft together?
Person 2: ok /gen
Person 1:πŸ‘

See how much less problematic the 2nd scenario was?
It's that one keyboard character that people put at the end of their messages to give it that extra sweet glitz! Though anyone can use it, its usage seems to be habitually popular amongst the female users.
Jessie: Omg your nails are soooo pretty 😍
Madelyn: thank you!~

Tyler: What do you think of my painting?
Kat: Beautiful ~β™₯

User 1: hey do you know what this means: ~
User 2: Isn't that what some ppl put at the end of their texts?
User 1: yeah
User 2: Not sure tbh, but I've always thought it made their texts seem more cute and sweet
User 1: yeah I thought the same! I guess it's kinda like a tone indicator
User 3: Well ackchyually it's more commonly used to signify an approximation of an amount. If you wanna get technical, it's called a tilde and it's a diacritic commonly used in the Spanish and Portuguese language
User 1: Interesting...

Google Chrome 

The most popular web browser of this decade. It has quickly become the default browser for every person and organization, for a good reason.

Chrome was famous for being a fast and lightweight browser, and tbh it still is. It only uses so much RAM cus people nowadays have like 50 extensions installed and 500 tabs open. Now it'd be a fat lie to say Chrome isn't hogging my RAM but people gotta consider the actual reasons behind it.

Also, Firefox is NOT better if we're strictly talking about RAM usage. In fact it eats up more RAM even in 2022. This is a fact, go look it up.

And as to the recent definitions: not everyone cares that much about privacy ya know. I genuinely don't care what Google does with my data, but if you do, then go use another Chromium-based browser like Brave, which has privacy features. It's practically Chrome but de-Googlefied. Also uses WAY less RAM.

Other than that, the differences are up to each person's tastes and needs. I find Chrome's UI to be far more modern, but to each their own. The amount of Firefox elitism here is hilarious.
Somebody: Ahhh yes, nothing beats that feeling of setting Google Chrome as your default browser πŸ‘Œ
Firefox Zealot: Ewwwww you mean that stinky piece of spyware???
Somebody: Chill out bro, it's just a browser bro.

Microsoft Edge 

Still kinda an awful browser even if it now shares the same DNA as chrome. Literally the first page that opens is a jumbled up mess of text and clickbaity news articles that I couldn't give zero fucks about. And the way it manages tabs is not my cup of tea.

It does eat a lot less RAM tho, so I'll give it that.
Person 1: Wtf, Windows just told me to switch to Microsoft Edge
Person 2: ewwwwwww
Person 1: Hey, at least now I have more free RAM
Something that zoomers often say, especially popular among females. It basically means the same thing as ooooh and oooOoo or even omg, just with the added benefit of sounding all cutesy and unbelievably cringy n stuff, I guess.
me: ouu I LOVE that new glossy pedi you just posted! 😍πŸ₯°πŸ€€
madelyn: bruh
