It gets used online for things, and there are whole communities devoted to shitposting, but I can’t find a clear set of rules for something to count as a shitpost. I remember querying whether a post on a shitposting community was witty enough to be a shitpost rather than just a shitty post, but of course not all the responses to that were terribly helpful!

    I typically interpret it two ways:

    • egregiously poor quality content, that does not contribute with a topic
    • unpretentious content posted for the sake of fun and entertainment

    Which is which depends on context.
