algo baiting

The act of falling for algorithmic bait and spiraling into unplanned doomscrolling, pointless replies, or emotional engagement you swore you’d avoid. You came for one thing—now it’s three hours later and you’re arguing with a stranger about toaster settings.
I wasted my whole afternoon on X, algo baiting over some dumb hot take.

master-bait

Crude term for knockoffs or clones of the Sega SG-3000 game console, also known as the Sega Master System outside of Japan, released in 1985. It is a combination of the first word in the name of the system and “bait”, which means deception, and deliberately sounds identical to “masturbate” when pronounced out loud
“Shit, it’s just more Famiclones and Master-Bait, not a single genuine console in sight”
