"Karbit" or "karbitan" refers to someone who jumps on the bandwagon of something (like a soccer team, band, or a trend) super quick, usually just when it’s blowing up or having a moment. They’re not in it for the long haul and can easily switch to whatever’s trending next.
In other community like anime, or gacha games community, the term "karbit" is also used to describe someone who claims a character (usually fictional) as their "wife" or "husband" for a short period, typically due to temporary popularity, hype, or just because they like them for that moment, and then switches to a new "wife" or "husband" when a new character drops.

"This karbit dude’s out here posting “my istri” every patch when a new waifu drops in Arknights endfield. No loyalty, smh."
"Dude’s already calling the new Wuthering Waves character his queen after one trailer. Wait for the next patch, lol."
