Browsing social media can be a bit overwhelming these days. With the number of acronyms popping up all the time, it can be difficult to keep up! Fortunately, there are guides to better understand what these acronyms and emojis mean so that you can better understand what your friend is trying to tell you. In this article, we’ll look at what “S” means on Snapchat and how you can respond to it.
“S” stands for “streak” – On Snapchat, communicating with the same person for three consecutive days triggers a streak, and some users want to keep it for as long as possible. The length of a current clip is indicated by the fire emoji and the associated number next to a contact name. Alternatives to just “S” are “strx” and “streak”, just like a picture with an “S.”
The “S / R” message can also be used to keep the streaks. This abbreviation stands for “streak and Current” and indicates that you are being contacted to extend a series or because this is one of the sender’s most recent contacts. Creating and maintaining streak requires daily input from both parties, so general etiquette is to respond. You can do it in a few moments with just an “S” of your choice, even if you want to keep your streaks or not; it’s up to you.
