Super Like

Tinder's blue star, launched in October 2015 — a swipe-up that tells the other person you liked them before they decide, limited to one a day for free so that it means something, and instantly understood by its recipients as either flattering or a lot. The record notes the Super Like was the first dating feature to be described as 'desperate' by the people it was designed to help, and that it was later sold in packs.

An earlier entry said the Super Like was 'a swipe right but more'. The record notes the difference is that the other person can see it, which turns a private vote into a public declaration, and that this is why it was mostly sent by accident.

Seen in the wild on a school noticeboard — a teacher's handwritten poster with Super Like on it, followed by a smiley. Genuinely unsure whether this is the birth or the death.

For the record: Super Like is not a joke, it is a shorthand. The joke is what happens when someone outside the group tries to use it as one.
