[ SLANG ][ MULTILINGUAL NATIVE ]

Brazilian Portuguese catchphrase ("swipe up") used by creators and influencers on Instagram Stories to tell viewers to swipe up to open an attached link. It stayed in use as a recognisable influencer phrase after the feature was replaced.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

""Gente, o link do sorteio está nos stories, é só arrastar pra cima!""

LORE & ORIGIN

Correio Braziliense (1 Jul 2021) reports Instagram testing link stickers for Stories while the swipe-up link was limited to accounts with more than 10,000 followers or a blue badge. Olhar Digital (21 Sep 2021) says Instagram replaced the swipe-up link with a link sticker and that the change "killed" the famous catchphrase. The phrase differs from the sibling entry on "ir de arrasta pra cima", which is a later death euphemism built on it.
