(Internet slang, social media, ambitransitive) To create a vaguepost.
And as I pore over all of the available reading material, it becomes clear that some folks in this new community vaguepost all the damn time. Perhaps unsurprisingly, I’m noticing that the ones most prone to vagueposting also are the ones…

Vaguepost means: To create a vaguepost.. It is internet-era slang, commonly seen on TikTok, Discord, Reddit or X.

For ESL learners
vaguepost means: To create a vaguepost.. Register: very informal, internet slang. Suitable only for casual conversation, chat and social media. Do not use in business, academic or news writing. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself.

For specific readers
Why is this section here?
Slang is read by different audiences for very different reasons. The For parents view re-explains the term in plain, non-judgemental language so a caregiver can understand what their child means without needing the surrounding subculture. The For English learners view focuses on register (when it's safe to use), formal alternatives, and common mistakes — what a textbook won't teach you.
