What Does This Mean?

Masterpost

Brainrot Score: 3.5 ⓘOBSERVED
[ SLANG ][ ENGLISH DAILY ]

A single post that gathers many links, resources or pieces of information on one topic, serving as a reference list that others can return to. It is common on blogging platforms such as Tumblr and on forums, for tutorials, reading lists, fandom resources and reference guides.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"She pinned a masterpost with every tutorial, template and font link the community had shared that year."

LORE & ORIGIN

Wiktionary defines masterpost as a posted message that gathers together several other posts on a single topic, and Urban Dictionary also has an entry for it. It is a compound of master and post. A masterpost is meant as a hub or index rather than as original long-form writing, which is the difference from an effortpost, and it is smaller in scope and more curated than a megathread, which collects live discussion. No source documents a first use or originating site.
