Meanings
-
(Internet, qualifier:social media) A feature on the social media app Snapchat that tracks how many consecutive days a user and their friend have exchanged photo or video messages ("Snaps") with each other.
Streaks became what separated my "real" friends from the rest of my contacts on the app. I had to maintain snap streaks not because my friends or I wanted to, but because letting it disappear would see that physical quantification of our friendship fall back down to zero.
