Tinder Limbo

That moment when you're browsing Tinder and come across a profile of a potential match. For whatever reason you can think of, you cannot decide which way to swipe. Therefore, in order to keep from making a decision, you close the app and re-open it, thereby re-shuffling your potential matches. This effectively puts that potential match in "Tinder Limbo."

Joe: Chelsie's profile just came up on Tinder. I definitely don't want to be more than friends with her. I want to swipe right just for fun, but that might give her the wrong idea...
Steven: So what do you think you'll do?
Joe: I think I'll just put her in Tinder Limbo. That way, I can decide later.

long limbo

Dead buried boneyard pushing up daisies

How's Jimmy?! Wow, I thought you knew. He's been doing the long limbo for almost a year now. He stepped out in front of a bus and became part of the grill.

An area in which you place yourself when you're unsure what to watch on Netflix as you have already watched the majority of the films/series it provides.

Join-Leave Limbo

"I joined the meeting early, but seeing no one else, I left. Unfortunately, this triggered a notification that the meeting had started, leading someone else to join. However, upon joining, they leave because no one is in the meeting! But their joining triggers a notification causing the cycle to repeat for others in a continuous cascade "
aka Empty Room Echo or Notification Cascade

the meeting ended early. I joined late causing a Join-Leave Limbo.
